Zusammenfassung: | We aimed to develop a noninvasive radiomics approach to reveal the m6A methylation status and predict survival outcomes and therapeutic responses in patients. A total of 25 m6A regulators were selected for further analysis, we confirmed that expression level and genomic mutations rate of m6A regulators were significantly different between cancer and normal tissues. Besides, we constructed methylation modification models and explored the immune infiltration and biological pathway alteration among different models. The m6A subtypes identified in this study can effectively predict the clinical outcome of bladder cancer (including m6AClusters, geneClusters, and m6Ascore models). In addition, we observed that immune response markers such as PD1 and CTLA4 were significantly corelated with the m6Ascore. Subsequently, a total of 98 obtained digital images were processed to capture the image signature and construct image prediction models based on the m6Ascore classification using a radiomics algorithm. We constructed seven signature radiogenomics models to reveal the m6A methylation status, and the model achieved an area under curve (AUC) degree of 0.887 and 0.762 for the training and test datasets, respectively. The presented radiogenomics models, a noninvasive prediction approach that combined the radiomics signatures and genomics characteristics, displayed satisfactory effective performance for predicting survival outcomes and therapeutic responses of patients. In the future, more interdisciplinary fields concerning the combination of medicine and electronics remains to be explored. |
