Cuproptosis patterns and tumor microenvironment in endometrial cancer.

ABSTRACT: Cuproptosis is the most recently discovered mode of cell death. It could affect the metabolism of cancer cells and surrounding infiltrating immune cells. In recent years, many studies have also shown that the tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a critical role in tumor growth and development. Mounting evidence suggests that Cuproptosis would bring unique insights into the development of pharmacological and nonpharmacological therapeutic techniques for cancer prevention and therapy. However, no study has been done on the combination of cuproptosis and TME in any cancer. Herein, we investigated the relationship between cuproptosis-related genes (CRGs), TME, and the prognosis of patients with Uterine Corpus Endometrial Carcinoma (UCEC). We identified three CRGs clusters based on 10 CRGs and th
