Identification of prognostic biomarkers associated with metastasis and immune infiltration in osteosarcoma.

ABSTRACT: Osteosarcoma is the most common primary malignancy of the bones, and is associated with a high rate of metastasis and a poor prognosis. A tight association between the tumor microenvironment (TME) and osteosarcoma metastasis has been established. In the present study, the Estimation of STromal and Immune cells in MAlignant Tumor tissues using Expression data (ESTIMATE) algorithm was applied to calculate the immune and stromal scores of patients with osteosarcoma based on data from The Cancer Genome Atlas database. A metagene approach and deconvolution method were used to reveal distinct TME landscapes in patients with osteosarcoma. Bioinformatics analysis was used to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) associated with metastasis and immune infiltration in osteosarcoma, and a ris
