Abstract
Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most common histological subtype of lung cancer with high incidence and unsatisfactory prognosis. The majority of LUAD patients eventually succumb to local and/or distinct metastatic recurrence. Genomic research of LUAD has broadened our understanding of this disease's biology and improved target therapies. However, the alternation landscape and characteristics of mitochondrial metabolism-related genes (MMRGs) in LUAD progression remain poorly understood. We performed a comprehensive analysis to identify the function and mechanism of MMRGs in LUAD based on the TCGA and GEO databases, which might offer therapeutic values for clinical researchers. Then, we figured out three hub prognosis-associated MMRGs (also termed as PMMRGs: ACOT11, ALDH2, and TXNRD1) that were engaged in the evolution of LUAD. To investigate the correlation between clinicopathological characteristics and MMRGs, we divided LUAD samples into two clusters (C1 and C2) based on key MMRGs. In addition, important pathways and the immune infiltration landscape affected by LUAD clusters were also delineated. Further, we nominated potential regulatory mechanisms underlying the MMRGs in LUAD development and progression. In conclusion, our integrative analysis enables a more comprehensive understanding of the mutation landscape of MMRGs in LUAD and provides an opportunity for more precise treatment.
