Abstract Background: Colon cancer is a kind of malignant tumor with high morbidity and mortality. Researchers have tried to interpret it from different perspectives and divide it into different subtypes in order to achieve individualized treatment. With the rise of immunotherapy, its value in the field of tumor has initially emerged. Based on the above background, from the perspective of immune infiltration, this study classified colon cancer according to the infiltration of M2 macrophages in patients with colon cancer and further explored it.Methods: Cibersort was used to analyze the level of immune cell infiltration in colon cancer patients in the TCGA database. WGCNA, Consensus Clustering analysis, Lasso analysis, and univariate KM analysis were used to screen and verify the hub genes associated with M2 macrophages. PCA was used to establish the M2 macrophage-related score—M2I Score. The correlation between M2I Score and somatic cell variation and microsatellite instability were analysed. Furthermore the correlation between M2 macrophage score and differences in immunotherapy sensitivity was also explored. Results: M2 macrophage infiltration was associated with poor prognosis. Four hub genes (ANKS4B, CTSD, TIMP1, and ZNF703) were selected as the progression-related genes associated with M2 macrophages. A stable and accurate M2I Score for M2 macrophages used in COAD was constructed based on four hub genes. M2I Score was positively correlated with tumor mutation load (TMB). The M2I Score of MSI-H group was higher than that of MSI-L group and MSS group. Combine with the TCIA database, we concluded that patients with a high M2I Score were more sensitive to PD-1 inhibitors and PD-1 inhibitors combined with CTLA-4 inhibitors. The low rating group may have better efficacy without immune checkpoint inhibitors or with CTLA4 inhibitors alone.Conclusion: Four prognostic hub genes associated with M2 macrophages were screened to establish the M2I Score and divided the patients into two subgroups: high M2I Score group and low M2I Score group. TMB, microsatellite instability and sensitivity to immunotherapy were higher in the high-rated group. PD-1 inhibitors or PD-1 combined with CTLA-4 inhibitors are preferred for patients in the high-rated group who are more sensitive to immunotherapy.

Bladder cancer (BC) ranks as the sixth most prevalent cancer in the world, with a steady rise in its incidence and prevalence, and is accompanied by a high morbidity and mortality. BC is a complex disease with several molecular and pathological pathways, thus reflecting different behaviors depending on the clinical staging of the tumor and molecular type. Diagnosis and monitoring of BC is mainly performed by invasive tests, namely periodic cystoscopies; this procedure, although a reliable method, is highly uncomfortable for the patient and it is not exempt of comorbidities. Currently, there is no formal indication for the use of molecular biomarkers in clinical practice, even though there are several tests available. There is an imperative need for a clinical non-invasive testing for early detection, disease monitoring, and treatment response in BC. In this review, we aim to assess and compare different tests based on molecular biomarkers and evaluate their potential role as new molecules for bladder cancer diagnosis, follow-up, and treatment response monitoring.
