Ferroptosis plays a vital role in cancer development and treatment. The relationship between ferroptosis-related genes and breast cancer prognosis, as well as immunotherapy outcomes, remains unknown.
To evaluate the prognostic value of ferroptosis-related genes in breast cancer.
We conducted differential expressions and prognostic analysis for ferroptosis-related genes on public databases and breast cancer patients in our center and analyzed their predictive value for immunotherapy of breast cancer patients.
We identified prognostic ferroptosis-related genes, constructed a nomogram, and validated key genes using patient data from our center. We also investigated ferroptosis-related genes significantly associated with immune infiltration and identified as a promising biomarker for triple-negative breast cancer immunotherapy.
Ferroptosis-related genes had potential prognostic value and predictive value for breast cancer immunotherapy.
铁死亡在癌症的发生发展及治疗中起着至关重要的作用。铁死亡相关基因与乳腺癌预后以及免疫治疗结果之间的关系尚不清楚。
评估铁死亡相关基因在乳腺癌中的预后价值。
我们在公共数据库以及本中心的乳腺癌患者中对铁死亡相关基因进行差异表达和预后分析,并分析它们对乳腺癌患者免疫治疗的预测价值。
我们鉴定出了预后性铁死亡相关基因,构建了列线图,并使用本中心的患者数据验证了关键基因。我们还研究了与免疫浸润显著相关的铁死亡相关基因,并确定其为三阴性乳腺癌免疫治疗的一个有前景的生物标志物。
铁死亡相关基因对乳腺癌免疫治疗具有潜在的预后价值和预测价值。
