BACKGROUND: Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) stands as an aggressive malignancy of the biliary tract. The interplay between the tumor and immune system plays a pivotal role in disease progression and treatment outcomes. Hence, the present study aimed to extensively explore the immunogenomic landscape of CCA, with the objective of unveiling unique molecular and immunological signatures that could guide personalized therapeutic approaches.
METHODS: The study collected data from The Cancer Genome Atlas databases, performed gene set variation analysis for the chemokine ligand 5 (CCL5) high/low expression group, conducted principal component analysis, gene set enrichment analysis enrichment and mutation pattern analysis, generated a heatmap, and performed cox regression analysis.
RESULTS: The two discrete subpopulations were found to exhibit contrasting mutational and immunogenomic characteristics, emphasizing the heterogeneity of CCA. These subsets also showed pronounced discrepancies in the infiltration of immune cells, indicating diverse interactions with the tumor immune microenvironment. Furthermore, the dissimilarities in mutational patterns were observed within the two CCA subgroups, with PBRM1 and BAP1 emerging as the most frequently mutated genes. In addition, a prognostic framework was formulated and validated utilizing the expression profiles of COX16 and RSAD2 genes, effectively segregating patients into high-risk and low-risk cohorts. Furthermore, the connections between immune-related parameters and these risk groups were identified, underscoring the potential significance of the immune microenvironment in patient prognosis. In vitro experiments have shown that COX16 promotes the proliferation and metastasis of CCA cells, whereas RSAD2 inhibits it.
CONCLUSIONS: The present study provides an intricate depiction of the immunogenomic landscape of CCA based on CCL5 expression, thereby paving the way for novel immunotherapy strategies and prognostic assessment.
