  Background: Papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC) accounts for 15% of all renal cell carcinomas. The molecular mechanisms of renal papillary cell carcinoma remain unclear, and treatments for advanced disease are limited.

  Result: We built the computing model as follows: Risk score = 1.806 * TPX2 - 0.355 * TXNRD2 - 0.805 * SLC6A20. The 3-year AUC of overall survival was 0.917 in the training set (147 PRCC samples) and 0.760 in the test set (142 PRCC samples). Based on the robust model, M2 macrophages showed positive correlation with risk score, while M1 macrophages were the opposite. PRCC patients with low risk score showed higher tumor mutation burden. TPX2 is a risk factor, and co-expression factors were enriched in cell proliferation and cancer-related pathways. Finally, the proliferation and invasion of PRCC cell line were decreased in the TPX2 reduced group, and the differential expression was identified. TPX2 is a potential risk biomarker which involved in cell proliferation in PRCC.

  Conclusion: We conducted a study to develop a three gene model for predicting prognosis in patients with papillary renal cell carcinoma. Our findings may provide candidate biomarkers for prognosis that have important implications for understanding the therapeutic targets of papillary renal cell carcinoma.

  Method: Gene expression matrix and clinical data were obtained from TCGA (The Cancer Genome Atlas), GSE26574, GSE2048, and GSE7023. Prognostic factors were identified using “survival” and “rbsurv” packages, and a risk score was constructed using Multivariate Cox regression analysis. The co-expression networks of the factors in model were constructed using the “WGCNA” package. The co-expression genes of factors were enriched and displayed the biological process. Based on this robust risk model, immune cells infiltration proportions and tumor mutation burdens were compared between risk groups. Subsequently, using the PRCC cell line, the role of TPX2 was determined by Cell proliferation assay, 5-Ethynyl-20-deoxyuridine assay and Transwell assay.

  Background: Papillary renal cell carcinoma (pRCC) was the 2^nd most common subtype, accounting for approximately 15% incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Immune related long non-coding RNAs (IR-lncRs) plentiful in immune cells and immune microenvironment (IME) are potential in evaluating prognosis and assessing the effects of immunotherapy. A completed and meaningful IR-lncRs analysis based on abundant pRCC gene samples from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) will provide insight in this field.

  Results: 17 IR-lncRs were selected by Pearson correlation analysis of immune score and the lncRNA expression level, and 5 sIRlncRs were significantly correlated with the OS of pRCC patients. 4 sIRlncRs (AP001267.3, AC026471.3, SNHG16 and ADAMTS9-AS1) with the most remarkable prognostic values were identified to establish the IRRS model and the OS of the low-risk group was longer than that in the high-risk group. The IRRS was certified as an independent prognosis factor and correlated with the OS. The high-risk group and low-risk group showed significantly different distributions and immune status through PCA and GSEA. In addition, we further found the expression levels of SNHG16 was remarkably enhanced in female patients with more advanced T-stages, but ADAMTS9-AS1 showed the opposite results.

  Conclusion: The IRRS model based on the identified 4 sIRlncRs showed the significant values on forecasting prognoses of pRCC patients, with the longer OS in the low-risk group.

  Methods: We integrated the expression profiles of LncRNA and overall survival (OS) in the 322 pRCC patients based on the TCGA dataset. The immune scores calculated on account of the expression level of immune-related genes were used to verify the most relevant IR-lncRs. Survival-related IR-lncRs (sIRlncRs) were estimated by COX regression analysis in pRCC patients. The high-risk group and low-risk group were identified by the median immune-related risk score (IRRS) model established by the screened sIRlncRs. Functional annotation was displayed by gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) and principal component analysis (PCA), and the immune composition and purity of the tumor were evaluated through microenvironment cell count records. The expression levels of sIRlncRs of pRCC samples were verified by real-time quantitative PCR.
