N6-methyladenosine related gene expression signatures for predicting the overall survival and immune responses of patients with colorectal cancer.

ABSTRACT: N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification has been demonstrated to exhibit a crucial prognostic effect on colorectal cancer (CRC). Nonetheless, potential mechanism of m6A in survival rate and immunotherapeutic response remains unknown. Here we investigated the genes associated with m6A regulators and developed a risk score for predicting the overall survival (OS) of CRC patients. RNA-seq transcriptomic profiling data of COAD/READ samples were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO)- Cox regression analysis was conducted to identify the m6A-related gene expression signatures and the selected genes were inputted into stepwise regression to develop a prognostic risk score in TCGA, and its predictive performance of CRC survival was f
