Abstract

B3GNT5, a critical member of the β-1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyl transferase gene family involved in lactose and glycosphingolipids biosynthesis, has been documented to promote tumor-infiltrating T-cell responses. Our research utilized the Pan-Cancer dataset from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) to explore the functional role of B3GNT5. Our study demonstrated that the antibody-driven inhibition of B3GNT5 diminished T cell-mediated anti-tumor responses in both in vitro and in vivo settings. By analyzing RNA-seq data from Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) and TCGA databases, we observed differential expression levels of B3GNT5 across various tumor types accompanied by an unfavorable prognostic correlation. We further utilized integrated clinical survival data from TCGA and immune cell infiltration scoring patterns to identify significant associations between B3GNT5 expression and immune checkpoints, cancer stemness, chemokines, chemokine receptors, and immune-activating genes. B3GNT5's expression was highly correlated with different immunoregulatory factors, including T cell infiltration, chemokine receptors, and activation genes. Subsequent experiments discovered that suppressing B3GNT5 expression in pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells significantly reduced their tumorigenicity by limiting sphere-forming ability and self-renewal capacity, thus underscoring B3GNT5's vital role as a prognostic factor in immune regulation across pan-cancer. Our findings suggest that B3GNT5 presents a viable target for cancer immunotherapy by enabling effective communication between cancer stem cells and immune cells during tumor treatment.

摘要

B3GNT5是β-1,3-N-乙酰氨基葡萄糖转移酶基因家族的关键成员,参与乳糖和糖鞘脂的生物合成,已有文献证明它能促进肿瘤浸润性T细胞反应。我们的研究利用了来自癌症基因组图谱(TCGA)的泛癌数据集来探索B3GNT5的功能作用。我们的研究表明,抗体驱动的B3GNT5抑制在体外和体内环境中均减弱了T细胞介导的抗肿瘤反应。通过分析来自基因型-组织表达(GTEx)和TCGA数据库的RNA测序数据,我们观察到B3GNT5在各种肿瘤类型中的表达水平存在差异,且与不良预后相关。我们进一步利用TCGA的综合临床生存数据和免疫细胞浸润评分模式,来确定B3GNT5表达与免疫检查点、癌症干性、趋化因子、趋化因子受体和免疫激活基因之间的显著关联。B3GNT5的表达与不同的免疫调节因子高度相关,包括T细胞浸润、趋化因子受体和激活基因。随后的实验发现,抑制胰腺腺癌细胞中B3GNT5的表达,通过限制其成球能力和自我更新能力,显著降低了它们的致瘤性,从而强调了B3GNT5作为泛癌免疫调节预后因子的重要作用。我们的研究结果表明,B3GNT5通过在肿瘤治疗过程中使癌症干细胞与免疫细胞之间实现有效通讯,为癌症免疫治疗提供了一个可行的靶点。
