BACKGROUND: Autophagy is crucial for controlling the manifestation of tuberculosis. This study intends to discover autophagy-related molecular clusters as biomarkers for discriminating between latent tuberculosis (LTBI) and active tuberculosis (ATB) in children through gene expression profile analysis.
METHODS: The expression of autophagy modulators was examined in pediatric patients with LTBI and ATB utilizing public datasets from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) collection (GSE39939 and GSE39940).
RESULTS: In a training dataset (GSE39939), patients with LTBI and ATB exhibited the expression of autophagy-related genes connected with their active immune responses. Two molecular clusters associated with autophagy were identified. Compared to Cluster 1, Cluster 2 was distinguished through decreased adaptive cellular immune response and enhanced inflammatory activation, according to single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA). Per the study of gene set variation, Cluster 2's differentially expressed genes (DEGs) played a role in synthesizing transfer RNA, DNA repair and recombination, and primary immunodeficiency. The peak variation efficiency, root mean square error, and area under the curve (AUC) (AUC = 0.950) were all lowered in random forest models. Finally, a seven-gene-dependent random forest profile was created utilizing the CD247, MAN1C1, FAM84B, HSZFP36, SLC16A10, DTX3, and SIRT4 genes, which performed well against the validation dataset GSE139940 (AUC = 0.888). The nomogram calibration and decision curves performed well in identifying ATB from LTBI.
CONCLUSIONS: In summary, according to the present investigation, autophagy and the immunopathology of TB might be correlated. Furthermore, this investigation established a compelling prediction expression profile for measuring autophagy subtype development risks, which might be employed as possible biomarkers in children to differentiate ATB from LTBI.
