Comprehensive characterization of 11 prognostic alternative splicing events in ovarian cancer interacted with the immune microenvironment.

ABSTRACT: Alternative splicing (AS) events play a crucial role in the tumorigenesis and progression of cancer. Transcriptome data and Percent Spliced In (PSI) values of ovarian cancer patients were downloaded from TCGA database and TCGA SpliceSeq. Totally we identified 1472 AS events that were associated with survival of ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma (OC) and exon skipping (ES) was the most important type. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis were performed to identify survival-associated AS events and developed the prognostic model based on 11-AS events. The immune cells and different response to cytotoxic T lymphocyte associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) and programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) blockers in low-risk and high-risk group of OC patients were analyzed. Ten kinds of immune
