مستخلص: Objective: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a highly heterotopic malignant tumor. Alternative splicing (AS) and RNA modification have been reported to be involved in tumorigenesis. Therefore, we constructed RNA modification-associated AS (RMA-AS) signature model to predict the prognosis of HNSCC.Methods: AS events and RNA-modified gene expression information were downloaded from TCGA-HNSCC database. Univariate Cox regression analysis was employed for analyzing prognosis-related AS events. RMA-AS events were obtained by constructing a coexpression network between RNA modification-associated genes and AS events using WGCNA package. The prognostic signatures were analyzed by LASSO, univariate Cox, and multivariate Cox regression. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, proportional hazard model, and ROC curve were performed to verify the prognostic value. "ESTIMATE" R package, ssGSEA algorithm, and CIBERSORT method were used to detect immune microenvironment in HNSCC. Cytoscape was utilized to build a regulatory network of splicing factor-regulated RMA-AS.Results: There were 16,574 prognostic AS events and 4 differentially expressed RNA modification-associated genes in HNSCC. Based on RMA-AS events, we obtained a risk model consisting of 14 AS events, named RMA-AS_Score. The samples were divided into RMA-AS_Score high- and RMA-AS_Score low-risk groups, according to the risk score. The RMA-AS_Score high group was related to poor prognosis. Moreover, the RMA-AS_Score signature was an independent prognostic predictor and was related to tumor grade. Meanwhile, the AUC value of RMA-AS_Score was 0.652, which is better than other clinical characteristics. Besides, a nomogram prediction model of quantitative prognosis has also been developed, which has robust effectiveness in predicting prognosis. In addition, the prognostic signature was observably related to immune microenvironment and immune checkpoint. Finally, 14 splicing factors were identified and constructed into a network of splicing factor-regulated RMA-AS.Conclusion: We identified the RMA-AS signature of HNSCC. This signature could be treated as an independent prognostic predictor. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
