A hypoxia-related prognostic model predicts overall survival and treatment response in hepatocellular carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Hypoxia and hypoxia-related genes regulate tumor initiation and progression. However, the exact roles that hypoxia plays in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remain unclear. In the present study, we calculated the hypoxia score of each sample in the GSE14520 training set by single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA). Then, weighted gene coexpression network analysis (WGCNA) was utilized to identify gene modules most correlated with hypoxia. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox regression analysis was utilized to further compress the candidate genes. We constructed the hypoxia-related prognostic risk score (HPRS) model based on the genes' corresponding Cox regression coefficients. Univariate and multivariate Cox analyses of the hypoxia score and clinicopathologi
