An effective prediction model is urgently needed for the accurate assessment of patients' prognosis to assist clinical decision-making.\nMETHODS: Gene expression data and clinicopathological data of the samples were acquired from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx), and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases. Differential expressed genes (DEGs) analysis, univariate Cox regression analysis, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis, random forest screening and multivariate Cox regression analysis were applied to construct the risk signature. The effectiveness and independence of the model were validated by time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, Kaplan-Meier (KM) survival analysis and survival point graph in training set, test set, TCGA entire set and GSE57495 set. The validity of the core gene was verified by immunohistochemistry and our own independent cohort. Meanwhile, functional enrichment analysis of DEGs between the high and low risk groups revealed the potential biological pathways. Finally, CMap database and drug sensitivity assay were utilized to identify potential small molecular drugs as the risk model-related treatments for PC patients.\nRESULTS: Four histone modification-related genes were identified to establish the risk signature, including CBX8, CENPT, DPY30 and PADI1. The predictive performance of risk signature was validated in training set, test set, TCGA entire set and GSE57495 set, with the areas under ROC curve (AUCs) for 3-year survival were 0.773, 0.729, 0.775 and 0.770 respectively. Furthermore, KM survival analysis, univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis proved it as an independent prognostic factor. Mechanically, functional enrichment analysis showed that the poor prognosis of high-risk population was related to the metabolic disorders caused by inadequate insulin secretion, which was fueled by neuroendocrine aberration. Lastly, a cluster of small molecule drugs were identified with significant potentiality in treating PC patients.\nCONCLUSIONS: Based on a histone modification-related gene signature, our model can serve as a reliable prognosis assessment tool and help to optimize the treatment for PC patients. Meanwhile, a cluster of small molecule drugs were also identified with significant potentiality in treating PC patients.", "claims": [{"id": "claim-method", "statement": "All the statistical analyses and visualization, including PCA analysis, DEGs analysis, univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis, LASSO regression and random forest screening, ROC curve analysis and K–M survival analyses were performed using Rstudio (version 4.0.2).", "kind": "methodological", "target": null, "evidence": [{"asset": "source:pmid:34090418", "locator": "sections[11] \"Statistical analysis\" paragraph 2", "quote": "All the statistical analyses and visualization, including PCA analysis, DEGs analysis, univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis, LASSO regression and random forest screening, ROC curve analysis and K–M survival analyses were performed using Rstudio (version 4.0.2)."}], "state": "complete"}, {"id": "claim-data-access", "statement": "Not applicable.", "kind": "methodological", "target": null, "evidence": [{"asset": "source:pmid:34090418", "locator": "sections[25] \"ack\" paragraph 1", "quote": "Not applicable."}], "state": "complete"}], "gaps": []}, "experiment": {"state": "complete", "objective": null, "steps": [{"id": "read_published_estimate", "order": 1, "name": "Read the published estimate from the source", "kind": "other", "state": "complete", "blocked_on": null, "description": "The claim, method and evidence span published with the source article.", "duration_hours": null, "parameters": {}, "inputs": ["source:pmid:34090418"], "outputs": ["the published estimate and its evidence"], "instruments": [], "reagents": []}, {"id": "obtain_source_data", "order": 2, "name": "Obtain the source data from the named repository", "kind": "data-preparation", "state": "complete", "blocked_on": null, "description": "The GEO series accession resolves and its sample accessions are listed.
