Immune-Related RNA-Binding Protein-Based Signature With Predictive and Prognostic Implications in Patients With Lung Adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Background: Dysregulation of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) in cancers is associated with immune and cancer development. Here, we aimed to profile immune-related RBPs in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and construct an immune-related RBP signature (IRBPS) to predict the survival and response to immunotherapy. Methods: A correlation analysis was performed to establish a co-expression network of RBPs and immune-related genes (IRGs) to characterize immune-related RBPs in the TCGA-LUAD cohort (n = 497 cases). Then, a combination of the Random survival forest (RSF) and Cox regression analysis was performed to screen the RBPs and establish IRBPS. This was followed by independent validation of IRBPS in GSE72094 (n = 398 cases), GSE31210, (n = 226 cases), and GSE26939 (<
