Comprehensive Analysis of Immune Implication and Prognostic Value of IFI44L in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Interferon-induced protein 44-like (IFI44L), a type I interferon-stimulated gene (ISG), has been reported to be involved in innate immune processes and to act as a tumor suppressor in several cancers. However, its immune implication on lung cancer remains unclear. Here, we systemically analyzed the immune association of IFI44L with multiple tumor-infiltrating immune cells (TIICs) and immunomodulators through bioinformatics methods in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) lung cancer cohorts. Then, the IFI44L-related immunomodulators were selected to construct the prognostic signatures in the lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) cohort and the lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) cohort, respectively. Concordance index and time-dependent receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curves we
