    Abstract:
    Research indicates that there are links between m6A, m5C and m1A modifications and the development of different types of tumours. However, it is not yet clear if these modifications are involved in the prognosis of LUAD. The TCGA-LUAD dataset was used as for signature training, while the validation cohort was created by amalgamating publicly accessible GEO datasets including GSE29013, GSE30219, GSE31210, GSE37745 and GSE50081. The study focused on 33 genes that are regulated by m6A, m5C or m1A (mRG), which were used to form mRGs clusters and clusters of mRG differentially expressed genes clusters (mRG-DEG clusters). Our subsequent LASSO regression analysis trained the signature of m6A/m5C/m1A-related lncRNA (mRLncSig) using lncRNAs that exhibited differential expression among mRG-DEG clusters and had prognostic value. The model's accuracy underwent validation via Kaplan-Meier analysis, Cox regression, ROC analysis, tAUC evaluation, PCA examination and nomogram predictor validation. In evaluating the immunotherapeutic potential of the signature, we employed multiple bioinformatics algorithms and concepts through various analyses. These included seven newly developed immunoinformatic algorithms, as well as evaluations of TMB, TIDE and immune checkpoints. Additionally, we identified and validated promising agents that target the high-risk mRLncSig in LUAD. To validate the real-world expression pattern of mRLncSig, real-time PCR was carried out on human LUAD tissues. The signature's ability to perform in pan-cancer settings was also evaluated. The study created a 10-lncRNA signature, mRLncSig, which was validated to have prognostic power in the validation cohort. Real-time PCR was applied to verify the actual manifestation of each gene in the signature in the real world. Our immunotherapy analysis revealed an association between mRLncSig and immune status. mRLncSig was found to be closely linked to several checkpoints, such as IL10, IL2, CD40LG, SELP, BTLA and CD28, which could be appropriate immunotherapy targets for LUAD. Among the high-risk patients, our study identified 12 candidate drugs and verified gemcitabine as the most significant one that could target our signature and be effective in treating LUAD. Additionally, we discovered that some of the lncRNAs in mRLncSig could play a crucial role in certain cancer types, and thus, may require further attention in future studies. According to the findings of this study, the use of mRLncSig has the potential to aid in forecasting the prognosis of LUAD and could serve as a potential target for immunotherapy. Moreover, our signature may assist in identifying targets and therapeutic agents more effectively.
