Cuproptosis-Related Gene DLAT as a Novel Biomarker Correlated with Prognosis, Chemoresistance, and Immune Infiltration in Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma: A Preliminary Study Based on Bioinformatics Analysis.

ABSTRACT: A novel form of cell death, cuproptosis, was recently identified to be mediated by the binding of copper to lipoylated enzymes of the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Cuproptosis-related genes (CRGs) may play a crucial role in the progression of pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD), which often exhibits metabolic reprogramming. In the present study, univariate Cox regression analysis and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis were performed to identify prognostic CRGs. Data from the Cancer Therapeutics Response Portal and the Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer database were downloaded for drug sensitivity analysis. DLAT was identified as the only prognostic CRG in PAAD (HR = 2.72; 95% CI, 1.10-6.74). Functional enrichment analyses indicated that the basic function of DLAT is closely related
