Comprehensively analysis of splicing factors to construct prognosis prediction classifier in prostate cancer.

ABSTRACT: Splicing factors (SFs) are proteins that control the alternative splicing (AS) of RNAs, which have been recognized as new cancer hallmarks. Their dysregulation has been found to be involved in many biological processes of cancer, such as carcinogenesis, proliferation, metastasis and senescence. Dysregulation of SFs has been demonstrated to contribute to the progression of prostate cancer (PCa). However, a comprehensive analysis of the prognosis value of SFs in PCa is limited. In this work, we systematically analysed 393 SFs to deeply characterize the expression patterns, clinical relevance and biological functions of SFs in PCa. We identified 53 survival-related SFs that can stratify PCa into two de nove molecular subtypes with distinct mRNA expression and AS-event expression patterns and
