Hypoxia-related lncRNA correlates with prognosis and immune microenvironment in uveal melanoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Hypoxia-related genes are linked to the prognosis of various solid malignant tumors. However, the role of hypoxia-related long non-coding RNAs (HRLs) in uveal melanoma (UVM) remains unclear. This study aimed to identify HRLs associated with UVM prognosis and develop a novel risk signature to predict patient outcomes.

Methods

Data from 80 UVM samples were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas. Prognostic HRLs were screened using Cox univariate and Pearson correlation analyses. HRL signature were constructed using Lasso analysis, and gene enrichment analysis was performed to explore the association between HRLs and immune features. Cell Counting Kit-8 assay was used to measure the propagation of human uveal melanoma (MuM2B) cells, while tumor invasion and migration
