摘要

Breast cancer (BRCA) is a prevalent malignant tumor among women, and the use of anesthetic drugs during surgical resection may influence tumor biology and patient prognosis. This study aimed to identify prognostic biomarkers associated with dexmedetomidine and dezocine (DD) in BRCA patients. Through Mendelian Randomization analysis, we screened four DD targets that had a causal relationship with BRCA. Subsequently, utilizing TCGA-BRCA data, univariate and Lasso Cox analyses revealed two significant prognostic biomarkers (NR1H3 and ADRB1) associated with BRCA patient prognosis, leading to the successful construction and validation of a prognostic risk model. Kaplan-Meier survival curves indicated that patients with higher NR1H3 and ADRB1 expression had longer overall survival (OS). Immunoinfiltration analysis showed that high-risk group patients exhibited increased infiltration levels of CD56 bright natural killer cells, CD56 dim natural killer cells, eosinophils, and plasmacytoid dendritic cells. Conversely, activated B cells and immature B cells demonstrated greater infiltration in the low-risk group. Correlation analysis revealed significant associations between prognostic biomarkers and various immune cells, including CD56 bright natural killer cells, CD56 dim natural killer cells, and activated CD8 T cells. NR1H3 was highly positively correlated with immune checkpoints such as TIGIT, PDCD1, CD274, CTLA4, LAG3, and HAVCR2 (|cor|≥0.3, P < 0.05). Immunohistochemistry images and Transcripts Per Million values from the Human Protein Atlas database confirmed that NR1H3 and ADRB1 expression levels were significantly higher in normal tissues compared to BRCA tissues. Our results suggest that target genes of anesthetic drugs (NR1H3, ADRB1) may be involved in BRCA prognosis.
