Hypoxia-immune-related microenvironment prognostic signature for osteosarcoma.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: Increasing evidences have shown that hypoxia and the immune microenvironment play vital roles in the development of osteosarcoma. However, reliable gene signatures based on the combination of hypoxia and the immune status for prognostic prediction of osteosarcoma have so far not been identified. Methods: The individual hypoxia and immune status of osteosarcoma patients were identified with transcriptomic profiles of a training cohort from the TARGET database using ssGSEA and ESTIMATE algorithms, respectively. Lasso regression and stepwise Cox regression were performed to develop a hypoxia-immune-based gene signature. An independent cohort from the GEO database was used for external validation. Finally, a nomogram was constructed based on the gene signature and c
