ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
This study aimed to identify the prognostic-related differentially expressed ferroptosis-associated genes (DEFAGs) in papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC).METHODS:
Data encompassing simple nucleotide variation, transcriptome profiles, and relevant clinical information of PRCC patients were sourced from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. The expression matrix of ferroptosis-associated genes (FAGs) was analyzed using the "limma" package in R to identify differentially expressed DEFAGs. Lasso regression analysis, along with univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regressions, was employed to identify independent prognostic-related DEFAGs and formulate a nomogram. Additionally, we examined potential independent survival-related clinical risk factors and compared immune cell infiltration and tumor mutation burden (TMB) differences between high- and low-risk patient groups.RESULTS:
A cohort of 321 patients were analyzed, revealing twelve FAGs significantly influencing the overall survival (OS) of PRCC patients. Among them, two mRNAs (GCLC, HSBP1) emerged as independent prognostic-related DEFAGs. Smoking status, tumor stage, and risk score were identified as independent clinical risk factors for PRCC. Furthermore, notable disparities in immune cell infiltration and function were observed between high- and low-risk groups. GCLC and HSBP1 were associated with various immune cells and functions, TMB, and immune evasion.CONCLUSION:
This finding revealed two independent prognostic-related DEFAGs in PRCC and established a robust prognostic model, offering potential therapeutic targets and promising insights for the management of this disease.
