摘要
The complex interplay between tumour cells and the tumour microenvironment (TME) underscores the necessity for gaining comprehensive insights into disease progression. This study centres on elucidating the elusive the elusive role of endothelial cells within the TME of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Despite their crucial involvement in angiogenesis and vascular function, the mechanistic diversity of endothelial cells among HNSCC patients remains largely uncharted. Leveraging advanced single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-Seq) technology and the Scissor algorithm, we aimed to bridge this knowledge gap and illuminate the intricate interplay between endothelial cells and patient prognosis within the context of HNSCC. Here, endothelial cells were categorized into Scissorhigh and Scissorlow subtypes. We identified Scissor+ endothelial cells exhibiting pro-tumorigenic profiles and constructed a prognostic risk model for HNSCC. Additionally, four biomarkers also were identified by analysing the gene expression profiles of patients with HNSCC and a prognostic risk prediction model was constructed based on these genes. Furthermore, the correlations between endothelial cells and prognosis of patients with HNSCC were analysed by integrating bulk and single-cell sequencing data, revealing a close association between SHSS and the overall survival (OS) of HNSCC patients with malignant endothelial cells. Finally, we validated the prognostic model by RT-qPCR and IHC analysis. These findings enhance our comprehension of TME heterogeneity at the single-cell level and provide a prognostic model for HNSCC.
