Background: This study aimed to construct and validate a prognostic model based on tumor associated macrophage-related genes (TAMRGs) by integrating single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and bulk RNA sequencing (bulk RNA-seq) data.
Methods: The scRNA-seq data of three inhouse glioma tissues were used to identify the tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) marker genes, the DEGs from the The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) - Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) dataset were used to further select TAMs marker genes. Subsequently, a TAMRG-score was constructed by Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression and multivariate Cox regression analysis in the TCGA dataset and validated in the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) dataset.
Results: We identified 186 TAMs marker genes, and a total of 6 optimal prognostic genes including CKS2, LITAF, CTSB, TWISTNB, PPIF and G0S2 were selected to construct a TAMRG-score. The high TAMRG-score was significantly associated with worse prognosis (log-rank test, P<0.001). Moreover, the TAMRG-score outperformed the other three models with AUC of 0.808. Immune cell infiltration, TME scores, immune checkpoints, TMB and drug susceptibility were significantly different between TAMRG-score groups. In addition, a nomogram were constructed by combing the TAMRG-score and clinical information (Age, Grade, IDH mutation and 1p19q codeletion) to predict the survival of glioma patients with AUC of 0.909 for 1-year survival.
Conclusion: The high TAMRG-score group was associated with a poor prognosis. A nomogram by incorporating TMARG-score could precisely predict glioma survival, and provide evidence for personalized treatment of glioma.

Background: Senescence classification is an acknowledged challenge within the field, as markers are cell-type and context dependent. Currently, multiple morphological and immunofluorescence markers are required. However, emerging scRNA-seq datasets have enabled an increased understanding of senescent cell heterogeneity.

Background: Patients with lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) receiving drug treatment often have an unpredictive response and there is a lack of effective methods to predict treatment outcome for patients. Dendritic cells (DCs) play a significant role in the tumor microenvironment and the DCs-related gene signature may be used to predict treatment outcome. Here, we screened for DC-related genes to construct a prognostic signature to predict prognosis and response to immunotherapy in LUAD patients.

Recent research has highlighted widespread dysregulation of alternative polyadenylation in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal lobar degeneration with TDP-43 pathology (FTLD-TDP). Here, we identify significant disruptions to 3` UTR polyadenylation in the ALS/FTLD-TDP mouse model rNLS8 that correlate with changes in gene expression and protein levels through the re-analysis of published RNA sequencing and proteomic data. A subset of these changes are shared with TDP-43 knock-down mice suggesting depletion of endogenous mouse TDP-43 is a contributor to polyadenylation dysfunction in rNLS8 mice.

Early-onset (EOCC) and late-onset cervical cancers (LOCC) represent two clinically distinct subtypes, each defined by unique clinical manifestations and therapeutic responses. However, their immunological profiles remain poorly explored. Herein, we analyzed single-cell transcriptomic data from 4 EOCC and 4 LOCC samples to compare their immune architectures.

Background: Sepsis and shock are common complications of necrotising soft tissue infections (NSTI). Sepsis encompasses different endotypes that are associated with specific immune responses. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) treatment activates the cells oxygen sensing mechanisms that are interlinked with inflammatory pathways.
