Prognostic value of disulfidptosis-associated genes in gastric cancer: a comprehensive analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Disulfidptosis is a newly identified type of nonapoptotic programmed cell death related to mechanisms such as ferroptosis, cuproptosis, pyroptosis, and necrotic apoptosis. This study explores the role of disulfidptosis-related long non-coding RNAs (DRLs) in gastric cancer and their potential as prognostic biomarkers.

Method

We developed a prognostic model using DRL scores to classify patients based on disulfidptosis activity. We evaluated these scores for correlations with drug sensitivity, tumor microenvironment (TME) features, tumor mutational burden (TMB), and prognosis. Potential disulfidptosis-related signaling pathways were screened, identifying FRMD6-AS as a promising therapeutic target. FRMD6-AS expression was further validated using real-time fluorescent q
