Recent evidence has demonstrated that biological networks outperform snapshot gene expression profiles at discovering promising biomarkers or heterogenous molecular subtypes across different cancer types. In order to investigate the behavioral patterns of cell death-related interaction perturbation in colorectal cancer (CRC), this study constructed the interaction-perturbation network with 11 cell death pathways and delineated four cell death network (CDN) derived heterogeneous subtypes (CDN1-4) with distinct molecular characteristics and clinical outcomes. Specifically, we identified a subtype (CDN4) endowedwith high autophagy activity andthe worst prognosis. Furthermore, AOC3wasidentified asa potential autophagy-related biomarker, which demonstrated exceptional predictive performance for CDN4 and significant prognostic value. Overall, this study sheds light on the complex interplay of various cell death forms and reveals an autophagy-related gene AOC3 as a critical prognostic marker in CRC. |  |\n| As the second most deadly worldwide, colorectal cancer (CRC) is featured by dramatical heterogeneity and invasiveness1. By2030, the global burden of CRC is expected to increase by 60%, with more than 1.1 million deaths and 2.2 million new cases2, demonstrating the imperative to improve the diagnosis and treatment of CRC patients. With advances in high-throughput sequencing and experimental techniques, numerous molecular biomarkers and taxonomies have been developed to facilitate the clinical management of CRC. A multicenter study of 13 countries internationally validated an Immunoscore measured by the abundance of CD3+ and CD8 + Tcells in the center and invasive margin of tumors, which could accurately estimate the recurrence risk of CRC patients3. Our study previously integrated ten machine-learning algorithms to construct a multi-gene panel for improving outcomes in CRC4. Moreover, molecular subtypes based on snapshot gene | expression or multi-omics data have represented a tremendous stride forward in deciphering intertumoral heterogeneity and optimizing individual treatments of CRC5–9, such as Consensus Molecular Subtypes (CMS)5 and CRC Intrinsic Subtypes (CRIS)6. Nonetheless, existing tools were commonly developed based on the expression profiles of multiple genes, obviously ignoring the biological interactions across various genes within adefined pathway10–12.\u003Cbr>Recently, various patterns of cell death have been investigated with each profoundly impacting the initiation and development of cancers13. In CRC, unbalanced or defective cell death signaling is involved in the pathogenesis of colorectal diseases ranging from chronic bowel disease to colorectal cancer14. Additionally, cell death pathways are essential targets for current therapies against CRC.
