Identification and Validation of a GPX4-Related Immune Prognostic Signature for Lung Adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a commonly occurring histological subtype of lung cancer. Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) is an important regulatory factor of ferroptosis and is involved in the development of many cancers, but its prognostic significance has not been systematically described in LUAD. In this study, we focused on developing a robust GPX4-related prognostic signature (GPS) for LUAD. Data for the training cohort was extracted from The Cancer Genome Atlas, and that for the validation cohort was sourced from the GSE72094 dataset including 863 LUAD patients. GPX4-related genes were screened out by weighted gene coexpression network analysis and Spearman's correlation analysis. Then, Cox regression and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression analyses were employe
