Ferroptosis-Related Gene Signature Accurately Predicts Survival Outcomes in Patients With Clear-Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: As a type of regulated cell death induced by Ras selective lethal (RSL) compounds such as erasti, ferroptosis is characterized by iron-dependent lipid peroxide accumulation to lethal levels. At present, little is known about the role of ferroptosis-related genes in clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). In the present study, the expression data of ferroptosis-related genes in ccRCC were obtained from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), and COX regression analysis was performed to construct a risk model of ferroptosis prognostic signature. The GEO database was used to verify the accuracy of the model. The following findings were made: the results reveal that the prognostic signature constructed by 11 ferroptosis genes (CARS, CD44, DPP4, GCLC, HMGCR, HSPB1, NCOA4, SAT1, PHKG2, GOT1, HMOX1) was
