Construction and validation of a predictive nomogram for ferroptosis-related genes in osteosarcoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Ferroptosis is a new type of cellular regulation of necrosis that has attracted great attention in recent years, which is different from the traditional mode of autophagy, apoptosis, and necrosis. Studies suggest that ferroptosis is key to the occurrence and development of tumors.

Methods

Here, we investigated the prognostic significance of ferroptosis-related genes (FRGs) in osteosarcoma (OS) using RNA transcriptome data from 88 OS samples collected from the UCSC Xena platform. We defined the OS sample from the UCSC platform as the training cohort and the GEO dataset (GSE21257 and GSE16091) as the validation cohorts. We assessed 73 up-regulated and 63 down-regulated FRGs. We divided patients from the UCSC database into groups at high risk and low risk and built a
