Cuproptosis-Related Risk Score Predicts Prognosis and Characterizes the Tumor Microenvironment in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Zhen Zhang et al.

Summary: The study finds that FDX1 is downregulated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and high expression of FDX1 is associated with longer survival time. HCC patients with high cuproptosis-related risk score (CRRS) have significantly lower overall survival (OS) and are enriched in cancer-related pathways. Mutation analyses reveal high mutational frequency of tumor suppressors such as P53 and BAP1, and low mutational frequency of CTNNB1 in high-CRRS HCC patients. Additionally, high CRRS is associated with increased pro-tumor immune infiltrates and high expression of immune checkpoints. Furthermore, CRRS has a high predictive value in determining the efficiency of sorafenib and non-responsiveness to TACE in HCC patients.

By analyzing changes in cuproptosis-related genes in endometrial cancer cohorts, three distinct gene clusters were identified, with patients in one cluster having higher survival probability and tumor microenvironment cell infiltration levels. A risk scoring system based on these genes can stratify patients into high-risk and low-risk groups, where low-risk patients have better prognosis and immunotherapy efficacy. Furthermore, the gene scores are correlated with other indicators such as copy number variation and tumor mutation load.

Summary: This study systematically assessed the transcriptional and genetic alterations of cuproptosis-related genes (CRGs) in esophageal carcinoma (ESCA). A CRGs signature was identified and found to significantly stratify ESCA patients' survival. Higher CRGs scores were associated with worse overall survival, higher pathology grades, aberrant cell adhesion, and increased sensitivity to PI3K-AKT pathway inhibitors. Additionally, high CRGs were correlated with increased mutation load and abnormal APOBEC mutation. Interestingly, higher CRGs scores were anomalously associated with more immune infiltration, possibly explaining its malignancy through increased PD-L1 stability and a higher proportion of bystander T cells.

Summary: Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death driven by excessive lipid peroxidation, and can be induced by various agents to suppress tumor growth while also potentially triggering inflammation-associated immunosuppression. The extent of ferroptosis's impact on tumor biology and its interactions with other signaling pathways are still under investigation.

Immunogenic ferroptosis and where to find it?

Robin Demuynck et al.

Summary: Ferroptosis is a newly discovered form of regulated cell death distinct from apoptosis and necroptosis, and has potential in anticancer therapy. However, ferroptotic cancer cells may pose a risk of tumor evasion due to decreased phagocytosis and antigen cross-presentation. Factors such as lactate, acidification, and hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment play a role in promoting ferroptosis resistance and affecting its immunogenicity.
