The Pyroptosis-Related Risk Genes APOBEC3D, TNFRSF14, and RAC2 Were Used to Evaluate Prognosis and as Tumor Suppressor Genes in Breast Cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Pyroptosis is a type of cell death that plays an important role in predicting prognosis and immunoregulation in cancers. However, the pyroptosis-related gene signature for prognosis and immune infiltration prediction has not been studied in breast cancer (BC).

Methods

The Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) databases were used to obtain the expression and clinical data of genes. 52 pyroptosis-related genes were obtained from TCGA-BC and estimated differentially expressed genes by the limma program. To categorize the molecular subtypes of pyroptosis-related genes, the ConsensusClusterPlus tool was utilized. Cox and Lasso regression analyses were used to create a signature. TCGA-BC dataset as the training set and the GSE37751 test set for ri
