Construction of Prognostic Risk Model for Small Cell Lung Cancer Based on Immune-Related Genes.

ABSTRACT: Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a highly invasive and fatal malignancy. Research at the present stage implied that the expression of immune-related genes is associated with the prognosis in SCLC. Accordingly, it is essential to explore effective immune-related molecular markers to judge prognosis and treat SCLC. Our research obtained SCLC dataset from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and subjected mRNAs in it to differential expression analysis. Differentially expressed mRNAs (DEmRNAs) were intersected with immune-related genes to yield immune-related differentially expressed genes (DEGs). The functions of these DEGs were revealed by Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses. Thereafter, we categorized 3 subtypes of immune-related DEGs via K-me
