B cell-related tertiary lymphoid structure may exert inhibitory effects on lung adenocarcinoma and SARS-COV-2

Abstract

BackgroundThe prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is poor. Infection with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) may further worsen the outcome of LUAD. This study utilized the immune model and the COVID-19 receptor signal to identify the potential immune structure affecting the prognosis of COVID-19 and LUAD. MethodsA prognostic model was established and verified. The correlation between immune cells and risk score was examined through a variety of immune calculation methods. Gene set variation analysis (GSVA) was used to explore the correlation between the immune signaling pathway, risk model, COVID-19 binding receptor (CO19ORS) signal, and different clinicopathological factors. ResultsThe analysis showed that the prognosis of patients was better in the low-risk group versus the high-risk group. The tertiary lymphoid structure dominated by T and B cells (TLS1) can improve the prognosis of patients in the low-risk group. Interestingly, the CO19ORS was enriched only in females and aged >65 years. The age group >65 years is closely related to the tertiary lymphatic structure of the newborn (TLS2), while the female sex is closely related to the TLS2 and TLS1 signature. The two groups exhibited a high level of inflammation-related signal distribution. In the near future, I will collect LUAD and COVID-19 related organizations to verify the changes of 8 risk protein. ConclusionTLS1 structure may improve the prognosis of patients with LUAD and SARS-COV-2 (Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2). This unexpected discovery provides new insight into the comprehensive treatment of patients with LUAD and SARS-COV-2.
