Abstract
Background: Smoking participates in pathogenesis of lung cancer. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play some specific roles during development of lung cancers.
Objective: To investigate effects of smoking on lncRNA alterations in lung cancer.
Methods: There are 522 lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and 504 lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) participants. Clinical and lncRNA genetic data were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. LncRNA alterations were analyzed in lung cancer patients. Smoking category and packs were evaluated. Correlations between smoking and LncRNA alterations were analyzed. Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed to determine overall survival and disease free survival.
Results: There are more non-smokers in LUSC than in LUAD. In both LUAD and LUSC, smoking could increase total mutation counts and fraction of copy number alterations. Smoking index positively correlated with total mutations in LUAD, but not in LUSC. Smoking could trigger lncRNA alterations both in LUAD and LUSC. Smoking regulated different lncRNA between male and female. EXOC3-AS1 and LINC00603 alterations were positively correlated with smoking index in male LUAD smokers. In female LUAD smokers, smoking index was positively correlated with SNHG15, TP53TG1 and LINC01600 and negatively with LINC00609 and PTCSC3. In both male and female LUSC patients, smoking increased or decreased several lncRNA alterations. DGCR5 alteration increased in male LUSC than in female LUSC patients. In female LUSC patients, LOH12CR2 alteration was positively correlated with smoking index.
Conclusion: Smoking promoted LUAD and LUSC development by affecting different lncRNA alterations in different genders.
Keywords: Smoking, lncRNA alteration, lung cancer, correlation, squamous cell carcinoma, TCGA.
