Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) is one of the primary malignant tumors of the central nervous system. Surgical limitations and resistance to therapy are important challenges in its treatment. This cancer has a high recurrence rate due to genetic heterogeneity, the presence of cancer stem cells (CSCs), and a unique tumor microenvironment (TME). The aim of this study is to identify lncRNAs associated with cells involved in recurrence and to investigate their role in regulating the immune response and related mechanisms using bioinformatic analysis of single-cell RNA data.
Methods: In this study, the differences in lncRNA expression among various cell types in primary and recurrent GBM were investigated using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis. Data analysis was performed using the SingleR package. Cells were classified into four distinct types based on gene expression patterns. Among these, T cells were selected for further study due to their key role in the tumor microenvironment and immune response.
Findings: The different cells were categorized into 4 distinct types based on their gene expression profiles. Among these types, T cells were selected due to their pivotal role in the tumor microenvironment and immunity. The results revealed that 11 lncRNAs, including LINC01088, PVT1, and KCNQ1OT1, exhibited different expression levels in T cells between primary and recurrent GBM.
Conclusion: This study provides new insights into the differences in gene expression between primary and recurrent GBM and highlights the potential of lncRNAs as therapeutic targets. It is likely that these lncRNAs play a role in glioblastoma formation and recurrence by regulating cancer-related gene expression and pathways. Definitive and final conclusions require further complementary studies.
