Classification of stomach adenocarcinoma based on fatty acid metabolism-related genes frofiling.

ABSTRACT: Background: Fatty acid metabolism (FAM)-related genes play a key role in the development of stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD). Although immunotherapy has led to a paradigm shift in STAD treatment, the overall response rate of immunotherapy for STAD is low due to heterogeneity of the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME). How FAM-related genes affect TIME in STAD remains unclear. Methods: The univariate Cox regression analysis was performed to screen prognostic FAM-related genes using transcriptomic profiles of the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)-STAD cohort. Next, the consensus clustering analysis was performed to divide the STAD cohort into two groups based on the 13 identified prognostic genes. Then, gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was carried out to identify enriched pathways in
