Genomic Profiling of Lower-Grade Gliomas Subtype with Distinct Molecular and Clinicopathologic Characteristics via Altered DNA-Damage Repair Features.
Lower WHO grade II and III gliomas (LGGs) exhibit significant genetic and transcriptional heterogeneity, and the heterogeneity of DNA damage repair (DDR) and its relationship to tumor biology, transcriptome, and tumor microenvironment (TME) remains poorly understood. In this study, we conducted multi-omics data integration to investigate DDR alterations in LGG. Based on clinical parameters and molecular characteristics, LGG patients were categorized into distinct DDR subtypes, namely, DDR-activated and DDR-suppressed subtypes. We compared gene mutation, immune spectrum, and immune cell infiltration between the two subtypes. DDR scores were generated to classify LGG patients based on DDR subtype features, and the results were validated using a multi-layer data cohort. We found that DDR activation was associated with poorer overall survival and that clinicopathological features of advanced age and higher grade were more common in the DDR-activated subtype. DDR-suppressed subtypes exhibited more frequent mutations in IDH1. In addition, we observed significant upregulation of activated immune cells in the DDR-activated subgroup, which suggests that immune cell infiltration significantly influences tumor progression and immunotherapeutic responses. Furthermore, we constructed a DDR signature for LGG using six DDR genes, which allowed for the division of patients into low- and high-risk groups. Quantitative real-time PCR results showed that CDK1, CDK2, TYMS, SMC4, and WEE1 were significantly upregulated in LGG samples compared to normal brain tissue samples. Overall, our study sheds light on DDR heterogeneity in LGG and provides insight into the molecular pathways of DDR involved in LGG development.
