Ferroptosis-associated lncRNA prognostic signature predicts prognosis and immune response in clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Clear cell Renal Cell Carcinoma (ccRCC), the most deadly and life-threatening tumor in the urinary system, has a dismal prognosis and a high risk of metastasizing. Regulation of ferroptosis is a prospective therapeutic target to eradicate malignant cells. Our objective was to seek ferroptosis-associated long non-coding RNAs (FALs) and developed a prediction signature for ccRCC. We extracted transcriptome data and clinical information from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) databases. Ferroptosis-associated genes (FAGs) were obtained from FerrDb database. A ferroptosis-associated lncRNA prognostic signature (FLPS) of ccRCC was generated utilizing univariate Cox regression, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), and multivariate Cox regression, sequentially, based on 8 lncRNAs
