PG - 861380 LID - 10.3389/fmolb.2022.861380 [doi] LID - 861380 AB - The TRP (transient receptor potential) superfamily, as cation channels, is a critical chemosensor for potentially harmful irritants. Their activation is closely related not only to tumor progression and prognosis but also to tumor therapy response. Nevertheless, the TRP-related immune gene (TRIG) expression of the tumor microenvironment (TME) and the associations with prognosis remain unclear. First, we represented the transcriptional and genetic variations in TRIGs in 535 lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) samples as well as their expression patterns. LUAD samples were divided into two distinct subtypes based on the TRIG variations. Significant differences had been found in prognosis, clinical features, and TME cell-infiltration features between the two subtypes of patients. Second, we framed a TRIG score for predicting overall survival (OS) and validated the predictive capability of the TRIG score in LUAD patients. Accordingly, to enhance the clinical applicability of TRIG score, we developed a considerable nomogram. A low TRIG score, characterized by increased immunity activation, indicated favorable advantages of OS compared with a high TRIG score. Furthermore, the TRIG score was found to have a significant connection with the TME cell-infiltration and immune checkpoint expressions. Our analysis of TRIGs in LUAD showed their potential roles in prognosis, clinical features, and tumor-immune microenvironments. These results may advance our knowledge of TRP genes in LUAD and show a new light on prognosis estimation and the improvement of immunotherapy strategies.
