Identification of anoikis-related subtypes and immune landscape in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Anoikis is a specific form of programmed cell death induced by the loss of cell contact with the extracellular matrix and other cells, and plays an important role in organism development, tissue homeostasis, disease development and tumor metastasis. We comprehensively investigated the expression patterns of anoikis-related genes (ARGs) in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) from public databases. Anoikis-related prognostic signatures were established based on four ARGs expression, in which KIRC patients were assigned different risk scores and divided into two different risk groups. In addition, four ARGs expression was validated by qRT-PCR. A better prognosis was observed in the low-risk group, but with lower immune activity (including immune cells and immune-related functions) in the
