Pan-cancer characterization of immune-related lncRNAs identifies potential oncogenic biomarkers
Open accessAbstract
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as critical regulators of gene expression and they play fundamental roles in immune regulation. Here we introduce an integrated algorithm, ImmLnc, for identifying lncRNA regulators of immune-related pathways. We comprehensively chart the landscape of lncRNA regulation in the immunome across 33 cancer types and show that cancers with similar tissue origin are likely to share lncRNA immune regulators. Moreover, the immune-related lncRNAs are likely to show expression perturbation in cancer and are significantly correlated with immune cell infiltration. ImmLnc can help prioritize cancer-related lncRNAs and further identify three molecular subtypes (proliferative, intermediate, and immunological) of non-small cell lung cancer. These subtypes are characterized by differences in mutation burden, immune cell infiltration, expression of immunomodulatory genes, response to chemotherapy, and prognosis. In summary, the ImmLnc pipeline and the resulting data serve as a valuable resource for understanding lncRNA function and to advance identification of immunotherapy targets.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
