Creation of a Prognostic Model Using Cuproptosis-Associated Long Noncoding RNAs in Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Cuproptosis is an unusual form of cell death caused by copper accumulation in mitochondria. Cuproptosis is associated with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Long noncoding RNAs (LncRNAs) have been shown to be effective prognostic biomarkers, yet the link between lncRNAs and cuproptosis remains unclear. We aimed to build a prognostic model of lncRNA risk and explore potential biomarkers of cuproptosis in HCC. Pearson correlations were used to derive lncRNAs co-expressed in cuproptosis. The model was constructed using Cox, Lasso, and multivariate Cox regressions. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, principal components analysis, receiver operating characteristic curve, and nomogram analyses were carried out for validation. Seven lncRNAs were identified as prognostic factors. A risk model was an in
