Cuproptosis is a newly defined form of programmed cell death that relies on mitochondria respiration. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play crucial roles in tumorigenesis and metastasis. However, whether cuproptosis-related lncRNAs are involved in the pathogenesis of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) remains unclear. This study aimed to identify the prognostic signatures of cuproptosis-related lncRNAs in DLBCL and investigate their potential molecular functions. RNA-Seq data and clinical information for DLBCL were collected from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). Cuproptosis-related lncRNAs were screened out through Pearson correlation analysis. Utilizing univariate Cox, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (Lasso) and multivariate Cox regression analysis, we identified seven cuproptosis-related lncRNAs and developed a risk prediction model to evaluate its prognostic value across multiple groups. GO and KEGG functional analyses, single-sample GSEA (ssGSEA), and the ESTIMATE algorithm were used to analyze the mechanisms and immune status between the different risk groups. Additionally, drug sensitivity analysis identified drugs with potential efficacy in DLBCL. Finally, the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network were constructed based on the weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA). We identified a set of seven cuproptosis-related lncRNAs including LINC00294, RNF139-AS1, LINC00654, WWC2-AS2, LINC00661, LINC01165 and LINC01398, based on which we constructed a risk model for DLBCL. The high-risk group was associated with shorter survival time than the low-risk group, and the signature-based risk score demonstrated superior prognostic ability for DLBCL patients compared to traditional clinical features. By analyzing the immune landscapes between two groups, we found that immunosuppressive cell types were significantly increased in high-risk DLBCL group. Moreover, functional enrichment analysis highlighted the association of differentially expressed genes with metabolic, inflammatory and immune-related pathways in DLBCL patients. We also found that the high-risk group showed more sensitivity to vinorelbine and pyrimethamine. A cuproptosis-related lncRNA signature was established to predict the prognosis and provide insights into potential therapeutic strategies for DLBCL patients.
