BACKGRUONDMelanoma is a common cancer in dermatology, but its molecular mechanisms remain poorly explained.AIMUtilizing single-cell analytics and bioinformatics, the work sought to discover the immunological infiltration and cellular molecular mechanisms of melanoma.METHODSMelanoma genes databases were downloaded from GeneCards, and gene expression profiles were chosen from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GSE244889). Establishing and analyzing protein-protein interaction networks for functional enrichment made use of the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and Gene Ontology (GO) databases. The process assesses the immunological cell infiltration variations between normal and malignant samples by Immune Cell AI software program. Different cell type differences were clarified by cell quality control, filtration, removal of batch effects and cell clustering analysis using single cell analysis techniques.RESULTSUsing a variety of machine learning techniques, 20 differentially expressed hub genes were found; among these, TP53, HSP90AB1, HSPA4, RHOA, CCND1, CYCS, PPARG, NFKBIA, CAV1, ANXA5, ENO1, ITGAM, YWHAZ, RELA, SOD1, and VDAC1 were found to be significantly significant. The results of enrichment analysis demonstrated that immune response and inflammatory response were strongly associated with melanoma. Animal mitophagy, ferroptosis, the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, and the HIF-1 signaling pathway were the primary signaling pathways implicated. Cells of immunity, T-cells, lymphocytes, B-cells, NK-cells, monocytes, and macrophages were shown to be significantly infiltrated in melanoma patients, according to analysis. Single cell analysis also demonstrated that ferroptosis is a significant mechanism of cell death that contributes to the advancement of melanoma and that macrophages are important in the disease.CONCLUSIONIn summary, different immune cell infiltrations-particularly macrophages-have a significant impact on the onset and course of melanoma, and our findings may help direct future investigations into melanoma macrophages.
