Construction of the Six-lncRNA Prognosis Signature as a Novel Biomarker in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is a common malignant gastrointestinal tumor threatening global human health. For patients diagnosed with ESCC, determining the prognosis is a huge challenge. Due to their important role in tumor progression, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) may be putative molecular candidates in the survival prediction of ESCC patients. Here, we obtained three datasets of ESCC lncRNA expression profiles (GSE53624, GSE53622, and GSE53625) from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. The method of statistics and machine learning including survival analysis and LASSO regression analysis were applied. We identified a six-lncRNA signature composed of AL445524.1, AC109439.2, LINC01273, AC015922.3, LINC00547, and PSPC1-AS2. Kaplan-Meier and Cox analyses were conducted
