Cuproptosis scoring model predicts overall survival and assists in immunotherapeutic decision making in pancreatic carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Background: Cuproptosis is a newly identified form of non-apoptotic cell death that is associated with the progression and treatment responses in pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD). However, its impact on oncology and tumor microenvironment (TME) remains unclear. Methods: Hub genes were identified using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox regression for 25 newly reported cuproptosis-related regulators and subjected to stepwise regression to obtain cuproptosis-related score (CuRS). Additionally, the clinical significance, functional status, role on TME, and genomic variation of CuRS were further examined systematically. Results: A CuRS model incorporating TRAF2, TRADD, USP21, FAS, MLKL, TNFRSF10B, MAPK8, TRAF5, and RIPK3 was developed. The stabilit
