Integrative analysis reveals different feature of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma subtypes. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • This study investigates the differences between large and small duct-type intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA), focusing on their molecular characteristics and immune environments.
  • A total of 132 patients' clinical data and genetic information were analyzed, revealing that large duct-type iCCA is associated with poorer survival and specific genetic mutations compared to small duct-type.
  • The gene PPP1R1B was found to be overexpressed in large duct-type iCCA, promoting tumor growth and invasion, suggesting it could be a new biomarker and target for therapy in this subtype.

Article Abstract

Background & Aims: Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) has two main histological subtypes: large and small duct-type iCCA, which are characterized by different clinicopathological features. This study was conducted with the purpose of expanding our understanding of their differences in molecular features and immune microenvironment.

Methods: We selected 132 patients who underwent radical surgery at our department between 2015 and 2021 for clinical and survival analyses. Whole-exome sequencing was performed to analyse mutational landscapes. Bulk RNA sequencing and single-cell RNA sequencing data were used for pathway enrichment and immune infiltration analyses based on differentially expressed genes. The function of PPP1R1B was analysed both in vitro and in vivo and the gene mechanism was further investigated.

Results: We found that large duct-type iCCA had worse overall survival and recurrence-free survival rates than small duct-type iCCA. Mutations in ARID1A, DOT1L and ELF3 usually occur in large duct-type iCCA, whereas mutations in IDH1 and BAP1 occur in small duct-type iCCA. Among the differentially expressed genes, we found that PPP1R1B was highly expressed in large duct-type iCCA tumour tissues. Expression of PPP1R1B promoted cell proliferation, migration and invasion and indicated a worse prognosis. A combination of USF2 with the promoter of PPP1R1B can enhance gene expression in iCCA, which may further affect the expression of genes such as AHNAK, C4BPA and activating the PI3K/AKT pathway.

Conclusions: Our findings extend our understanding of large and small duct-type iCCA. In addition, PPP1R1B may serve as a potential marker and therapeutic target for large duct-type iCCA.
