Transcriptome Signature of Immune Cells Post Reovirus Treatment in KRAS Mutated Colorectal Cancer
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Purpose: Reovirus propagates with high efficiency in KRAS mutated colorectal cancer (CRC). About 45– 50% of CRC patients possess a KRAS mutation. Oncolytic reovirus treatment in combination with chemotherapy was tested in patients possessing KRAS mutated metastatic CRC. This study evaluates the biological responses to reovirus treatment by determining the gene expression patterns in RAS-related signaling pathways. Methods: Reovirus was administered as a 60-min intravenous infusion for 5 consecutive days every 28 days, at a tissue culture infective dose (TCID 50 ) of 3× 10 10 . Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from whole-blood pre- and post-reovirus administration at 48 hr, day-8, and day-15. Clariom_D_Human_Assay was used to determine the expression of vital genes compared to pre-reovirus treatment by RNA sequencing. Using exported sample signals, ΔΔCt method was used to analyze the fold changes of genes within seven gene pathways. Significance was calculated by students-two-tail- t- test. Hierarchical clustering dendrogram was constructed by calculating Pearson’s correlation coefficients. Results: As compared to the control, SOS1 [48 hr; 2.49X], RRAS [48 hr; 2.24X], PIK3CB [D8, D15; 2.27X, 3.16X], MIR 16– 2 [D15; 1.70X], CHORDC1 [48 hr, D15; 1.89X, 4.54X], RTN4 [48 hr; 4.66X], FAM96A [48 hr; 4.54X], NFKB [D8, D15; 19.0X, 1.42X], CASP8 [D8, D15; 2.11X, 1.77X], and CASP9 [D8; 1.45X] are upregulated post-reovirus. NOS3 [D15; 0.61X], SYNE1 [D8, D15; 0.78X, 0.71X], ANGPT1 [D8; 0.62X], VEGFB [48 hr, D8, D15; 0.44X, 0.28X, 0.28X], JUN [D15; 0.69X], and IGF2 [D8; 0.73X] are downregulated post-reovirus. Fold change values were significant [p< 0.05]. Conclusion: This study highlights reovirus as a novel treatment option for KRAS mutated CRC and showcases its effect on the expression of crucial genes.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
