Novel Ferroptosis-Related Multigene Prognostic Models for Patients with Bladder Cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Bladder cancer contributes to a serious disease burden in clinical settings. The characteristics and prognosis of patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) and non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) are distinctly different. The study aims to figure out the respective role of ferroptosis in MIBC and NMIBC and to construct ferroptosis-related gene signatures that could predict patients' prognoses.

Methods

A total of 608 MIBC and 414 NMIBC RNA-seq transcriptome data with intact clinical and follow-up information were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), ArrayExpress, and Gene expression omnibus (GEO) database. Ferroptosis-related multigene prognostic models were constructed and externally validated, respectively, in MIBC and NMIBC. Further fu
