Cuproptosis-related prognostic signatures predict the prognosis and immunotherapy in HCC patients.

ABSTRACT: Cuproptosis, an unusual type of programmed cell death mechanism of cell death, involved the disruption of specific mitochondrial metabolic enzymes in the occurrence and development of tumors. However, it was still unclear how the relationship between cuproptosis-related genes (CRGs) may contribute to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) potential the prognosis of HCC remained limited. Here, the landscape of 14 CRGs in HCC was evaluated using the Cancer Genome Atlas and International Cancer Genome Consortium datasets. And then, 4 CRGs (ATP7A, MTF1, GLS, and CDKN2A) were screened for the construction of risk signatures for prognosis and drug therapy. The HCC patients with CRGs high-risk showed poor prognosis than those with low risk. Moreover, the CRGs risk signature was shown to be an independent
