Development of an immune-related prognostic biomarker for triple-negative breast cancer

ABSTRACT: Triple-negative breast cancer represents approximately 15–20% of all reported breast cancer cases, and is characterized by a shorter survival time and higher mortality rates compared to other breast cancer sub-types. Tumor microenvironment (TME) refers to the internal and external environment of tumor tissue. Increasing evidence indicates that a tumor’s microenvironment is tightly associated with the immunological surveillance and defense during the development of breast cancer. Although oncology studies employing digital dissection methodologies have provided some insight on the biological features of TME, the development of methods to investigate the cellular composition of the tumor microenvironment remain an important research priority. In this study, we extracted whole transcriptome f
