A prognostic and immunotherapy effectiveness model for pancreatic adenocarcinoma based on cuproptosis-related lncRNAs signature.

ABSTRACT: Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) results in one of the deadliest solid tumors with discouraging clinical outcomes. Growing evidence suggests that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a crucial role in altering the growth, prognosis, migration, and invasion of pancreatic cancer cells. Cuproptosis is a novel type of cell death induced by copper (Cu) and is associated with mitochondrial respiration during the tricarboxylic acid cycle. However, the relationship between lncRNAs related to cuproptosis and PAAD is poorly studied. In this study, we investigated the association between a signature of cuproptosis-related lncRNAs and the diagnosis of PAAD. Genomic data and clinical information were obtained using the TCGA dataset, while cuproptosis-related genes (CRGs) from previous studies. Co-expres
