Abstract
In this study, a total of 13 inflammation-related lncRNAs with a high prognostic value were identified with univariate, multivariate Cox regression analysis, and LASSO analysis. LINC00346, which is one of the 13 lncRNAs identified, was positively associated with type 2 macrophage activation and the malignant degree of glioma. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and immunohistochemical staining showed that LINC00346 was highly expressed in high-grade glioma, while type 2 macrophages key transcription factor STAT3 and surface marker CD204 were also highly expressed simultaneously. LINC00346 high-expression gliomas were more sensitive to the anti–PD-1 and anti-CTLA-4 therapy. LINC00346 was also associated with tumor proliferation and tumor migration validated by EdU, cell colony, formation CCK8, and transwell assays. These findings reveal novel biomarkers for predicting glioma prognosis and outline relationships between lncRNAs inflammation, and glioma, as well as possible immune checkpoint targets for glioma.
