Machine Learning and Novel Biomarkers Associated with Immune Infiltration for the Diagnosis of Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) accounts for the main esophageal cancer type, which is related to advanced stage and poor survivals. Therefore, novel diagnostic biomarkers are critically needed. In the current research, we aimed to screen novel diagnostic biomarkers based on machine learning. The expression profiles were obtained from GEO datasets (GSE20347, GSE38129, and GSE75241) and TCGA datasets. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened between 47 ESCC and 47 nontumor samples. The LASSO regression model and SVM-RFE analysis were carried out for the identification of potential markers. ROC analysis was carried out to assess discriminatory abilities. The expressions and diagnostic values of the candidates in ESCC were demonstrated in the GSE75241 datasets and TCGA da
