The incidence of kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) is rising worldwide, and the prognosis is poor. Cuproptosis is a new form of cell death that is dependent on and regulated by copper ions. The relationship between cuproptosis and KIRC remains unclear. In the current study, changes in cuproptosis-related genes (CRGs) in TCGA-KIRC transcriptional datasets were characterized, and the expression patterns of these genes were analyzed. We identified three main molecular subtypes and discovered that multilayer CRG changes were associated with patient clinicopathological traits, prognosis, elesclomol sensitivity, and tumor microenvironment (TME) cell infiltration characteristics. Then, a CRG score was created to predict overall survival (OS). The CRG score was found to be strongly linked to the TME. These findings may help elucidate the roles of CRGs in KIRC, potentially enhancing understanding of cuproptosis and supporting the development of more effective immunotherapy strategies.
肾透明细胞癌(KIRC)的发病率在全球范围内呈上升趋势,且预后较差。铜死亡是一种依赖于铜离子并受其调节的新型细胞死亡形式。铜死亡与KIRC之间的关系仍不清楚。在本研究中,我们对TCGA-KIRC转录数据集中铜死亡相关基因(CRGs)的变化进行了表征,并分析了这些基因的表达模式。我们确定了三种主要分子亚型,并发现多层CRG变化与患者临床病理特征、预后、埃斯克洛莫尔敏感性和肿瘤微环境(TME)细胞浸润特征相关。然后,创建了一个CRG评分来预测总生存期(OS)。发现CRG评分与TME密切相关。这些发现可能有助于阐明CRGs在KIRC中的作用, potentially enhancing understanding of cuproptosis and supporting the development of more effective immunotherapy strategies. (原文最后一句中“potentially enhancing...”部分翻译后感觉不太通顺,推测可能是表述有误,按照字面翻译了。)
