BackgroundRNA-binding protein (RBP) regulates acute myeloid leukemia (AML) by participating in mRNA editing and modification. Pyroptosis also plays an immunomodulatory function in AML. Therefore, this study aimed to identify pyroptosis-related RBP genes that could predict the prognosis of AML patients.MethodsAML related expression data were downloaded from the UCSC website and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Pyroptosis-RPB-related differentially expressed genes (PRBP-DEGs) were conducted with a protein-protein interactions (PPI) network to screen out the key PRBP-DEGs, based on which a risk model was constructed by Cox analysis, and evaluated by plotting Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and survival curves. Independent prognostic analysis was performed and a nomogram was constructed. Finally, enrichment analysis was performed for high and low risk groups.ReusltsA total of 71 PRBP-DEGs were obtained and a pyroptosis-RPB-related risk model was constructed based on IFIT5, MRPL14, MRPL21, MRPL39, MVP, and PUSL1 acquired from Cox analysis. RiskScore, age, and cytogenetics risk category were identified as independent prognostic factors, and the nomogram based on these independent prognostic factors could accurately predict 1-, 3- and 5-year survival of AML patients. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) showed that the high-risk and low-risk groups were mainly enriched in metabolic- and immune-related processes and pathways.ConclusionIn this study, a risk score model correlated with metabolism based on RNA-binding proteins associated with cell pyroptosis in acute myeloid leukemia was established, which provided a theoretical basis and reference value for therapeutic studies and prognosis of AML. |
