ABSTRACT

Hypoxia is a common feature of tumor microenvironment (TME). This study aims to establish the genetic features related to hypoxia in Bladder urothelial carcinoma (BLCA) and investigate the potential correlation with hypoxia in the TME and immune cells. We established a BLCA outcome model using the hypoxia-related genes from The Cancer Genome Atlas using regression analysis and verified the model using the Gene Expression Omnibus GSE32894 cohort. We measured the effect of each gene in the hypoxia-related risk model using the Human Protein Atlas website. The predictive abilities were compared using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curves. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis was utilized for indicating enrichment pathways. We analyzed immune cell infiltration between risk groups using the CIBERSORT method. The indicators related to immune status between the two groups were also analyzed. The findings indicated that the high-risk group had better outcomes than the low-risk group in the training and validation sets. Each gene in the model affected the survival of BLCA patients. Our hypoxia-related risk model had better performance compared to other hypoxia-related markers (HIF-1α and GLUT-1). The high-risk group was enriched in immune-related pathways. The expression of chemokines and immune cell markers differed significantly between risk groups. Immune checkpoints were more highly expressed in the high-risk group. These findings suggest that the hypoxia-related risk model predicts patients' outcomes and immune status in BLCA risk groups. Our findings may contribute to the treatment of BLCA.
