A prognostic model based on prognosis-related ferroptosis genes for patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

ABSTRACT: Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disorder with an unpredictable prognosis. Ferroptosis, the iron-dependent cell death program, could serve as an alternative for overcoming drug resistance. However, its effect on AML remains largely unclear. Methods: We collected RNA sequencing data and relevant clinical information of AML patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas to construct a prognosis prediction model. Risk score was calculated with eight prognosis-related ferroptosis genes (PRFGs) discovered through univariate analysis and Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) Cox regression. A nomogram was constructed by incorporating LASSO risk score, age, and cytogenetic risk based on univariate/multivariate Cox regression. Results: Of th
