Immunization Combined with Ferroptosis Related Genes to Construct a New Prognostic Model for Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Ferroptosis is a new type of programmed cell death that plays a pivotal role in a variety of tumors. Moreover, immunity is closely related to ferroptosis. However, immune-ferroptosis-related mRNAs (IFRMs) are still not fully understood in the regulation of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC). The purpose of this paper was to investigate the IFRMs prediction of HNSC and its possible molecular biological role. RNA-Seq and related clinical data were mined from the TCGA database, ImmPort database, GeneCards database, FerrDb database, and previous data. In R software, the "DESeq2" package was used to analyze the differential expression of IFRMs. We used univariate Cox analysis to judge the prognosis of the IFRMs. Using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) and Cox
