A novel pyroptosis-related indicator of immune infiltration features and prognosis in breast cancer.

ABSTRACT: Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women, and there is evidence for the dual role of cell pyroptosis in tumor development. However, little is known about the relationship between cell pyroptosis and breast cancer and its prognostic value. We aimed to construct a prognostic model using cell-pyroptosis-related genes to provide innovative insights into the prognosis and treatment of breast cancer. We screened candidate genes for pyroptosis using public databases and identified 10 cell pyroptosis signature genes with the random forest method. Finally, a nomogram for predicting 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival probabilities was constructed. The differences in immune cell distributions between survival periods were similar across the breast cancer datasets. The 10 identified key pyroptosi
