Development of the expression and prognostic significance of m⁵ C-related LncRNAs in breast cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

5-Methylcytosine (m5C) methylation is a major epigenetic RNA modification and is closely related to tumorigenesis in various cancers. This study aimed to explore the prognostic value of m5C-related lncRNAs in breast cancer.

Methods

Clinical characteristics and RNA-seq expression data from TCGA (The Cancer Genome Atlas) were used in the study. First, we performed differentially expressed gene (DEG) analysis and constructed a PPI network for the 12 m5C regulators. Then, we identified the m5C-related LncRNAs by the "cor. test." An m5C-related lncRNA prognostic risk signature was developed using univariate Cox regression and Lasso-penalized Cox regression analyses. The model's performance was determined using Kaplan-Meier (KM) survival analysis and ROC curves. Finally
