Abstract

AbstractBladder cancer, a prevalent and heterogeneous malignancy, necessitates the discovery of pertinent biomarkers to enable personalized treatment. The mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1), a pivotal regulator of cellular growth, metabolism, and immune response, exhibits activation in a subset of bladder cancer tumors. In this study, we explore the prognostic significance of mTORC1 signaling in bladder cancer through the utilization of bioinformatics analysis. Our investigation incorporates transcriptomic, somatic mutation, and clinical data, examining the mTORC1 score of each sample, as well as the enrichment of differentially expressed genes (DEGs), differentiation characteristics, immunological infiltration, and metabolic activity. Our findings reveal that elevated mTORC1 levels serve as an adverse prognostic indicator for bladder cancer patients, exhibiting a significant association with Basal-type bladder cancer. Patients with heightened mTORC1 activation display heightened levels of pro-carcinogenic metabolism. Additionally, these individuals demonstrate enhanced response to immunotherapy. Finally, we develop an mTORC1-related signature capable of predicting the prognosis of bladder cancer patients.The signature offers novel mTORC1-related biomarkers and provides fresh insights into the involvement of mTORC1 in the pathogenesis of bladder cancer.
