Identification of immune infiltration-related genes as prognostic indicators for hepatocellular carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has a high degree of malignancy and a poor prognosis. Immune infiltration-related genes have shown good predictive value in the prognosis of many solid tumours. In this study, we established and verified prognostic biomarkers consisting of immune infiltration-related genes in HCC. Gene expression data and clinical data were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Differential gene expression analysis, univariate Cox regression analysis and the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression algorithm were used to screen prognostic immune infiltration-related genes and to construct a risk scoring model. Kaplan-Meier (KM) survival plots and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis were used to evaluate the progn
