Development and Validation of a Novel Mitophagy-Related Gene Prognostic Signature for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Based on Immunoscore Classification of Tumor.

ABSTRACT: Emerging evidence suggested that mitophagy may play an important role in the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), whereas the association between mitophagy-related genes and HCC patients' prognosis remains unknown. In this study, we aimed to investigate the potential prognostic values of mitophagy-related genes (MRGs) on HCC patients at the genetic level. According to median immunoscore, we categorized HCC patients from TCGA cohort into two immune score groups, while 39 differential expression MRGs were identified. By using univariate analysis, we screened out 18 survival-associated MRGs, and then, the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) analysis was applied to construct a prognosis model that consisted of 9 MRGs (ATG7, ATG9A, BNIP3L, GABARAPL1, HTRA2, MAP1LC3
