Comprehensive Analysis of a Nine-Gene Signature Related to Tumor Microenvironment in Lung Adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most common malignancy, leading to more than 1 million related deaths each year. Due to low long-term survival rates, the exploration of molecular mechanisms underlying LUAD progression and novel prognostic predictors is urgently needed to improve LUAD treatment. In our study, cancer-specific differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified using the robust rank aggregation (RRA) method between tumor and normal tissues from six Gene Expression Omnibus databases (GSE43458, GSE62949, GSE68465, GSE115002, GSE116959, and GSE118370), followed by a selection of prognostic modules using weighted gene co-expression network analysis. Univariate Cox regression, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), and multivariate Cox regression analyses wer
