An m7G-related lncRNA signature predicts prognosis and reveals the immune microenvironment in bladder cancer.

ABSTRACT: Bladder cancer (BC) is a representative malignant tumor type, and the significance of N7-methyguanosine (m7G)-related lncRNAs in BC is still unclear. Utilizing m7G-related lncRNAs, we developed a prognostic model to evaluate BC's prognosis and tumor immunity. First, we selected prognostic lncRNAs related to m7G by co-expression analysis and univariate Cox regression and identified two clusters by consensus clustering. The two clusters differed significantly in terms of overall survival, clinicopathological factors, and immune microenvironment. Then, we further constructed a linear stepwise regression signature by multivariate Cox and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis. Patients fell into high-risk (HR) and low-risk (LR) groups considering the train
