Osteosarcoma (OS) is a malignant bone tumor that most commonly occurs in children and adolescents. OS patients have a poor prognosis, and 5-year survival rates have rarely improved significantly over the past few decades. OS prognosis may be related to the infiltration of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs). However, the role of proangiogenic macrophages, a subtype of TAMs, in OS prognosis has not been reported. In this study, seven subtypes of TAMs were identified from single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data that we propose defining as proangiogenic TAMs (Angio-TAMs), interferon-primed TAMs (IFN-TAMs), inflammatory cytokine-enriched TAMs (Inflam-TAMs), immune regulatory TAMs (Reg-TAMs), lipid-associated TAMs (LA-TAMs), and resident-tissue macrophages like TAMs (RTM-TAMs) (containing two subcellular types). In the survival analysis of each macrophage subtype, it was found that patients with Angio-TAMs had the most significant difference in survival. Eight genes associated with Angio-TAMs were obtained by differential expression analysis, and these genes were built into a prognostic model using the LASSO algorithm. Clinical OS case samples were categorized into high-risk and low-risk subgroups using median risk scores. In comparison to the low-risk subgroup, the survival time of the high-risk subgroup was much shorter. Additional studies on immune cell infiltration and immune checkpoint molecule expression in the two risk subgroups were carried out. In immunotherapy response prediction, the Angio-TAM-associated gene risk signature was found to be negatively correlated with immune checkpoint responses. In addition, the associated enriched GO (Gene Ontology) and KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) pathways were mainly involved in the malignant progression of tumors. As suggested by these findings, the Angio-TAM gene risk signature may be an underlying prognostic biomarker and novel therapeutic target for OS patients.Kindly check and confirm whether the ESM file is correctly identifiedWe have checked this file and confirmed that it can be correctly identified.
