Abstract
RNA guanine-7 methyltransferase (RNMT), in complex with FAM103A1, plays an important role in tumorigenesis and development. The aim of this study was to establish a prognostic model of RNMT and FAM103A1-based upstream microRNAs and explore its correlation with immune cell infiltration in breast cancer (BC) while investigating its potential prognostic value and verify the model by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The miRNA expression data upstream of the m7G methyltransferase complex RNMT/FAM103A1 in BC was obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas and TargetScan databases. We performed univariate Cox regression, LASSO regression, Kaplan-Meier survival, and principal component analyses, along with risk prognostic modelling. Based on multivariate Cox regression analysis, a total of 12 m7G methyltransferase-related miRNAs were found. The model showed good accuracy for predicting the 1-, 3-,5-, and 10-year survival rates, and the areas under the curve were almost >0.7. To characterize the risk-level model constructed from 12 miRNAs, 12 differentially expressed mRNAs related to prognosis and immune infiltration were obtained. The prognosis of BC patients is well predicted by the risk model we constructed. This model is also closely related to immune infiltration, and new immunotherapy targets can be explored from this field.
