Identification of the Pyroptosis-Related Gene Signature for Overall Survival Prediction in Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the second most lethal malignant tumor worldwide, with an increasing incidence and mortality. Due to general resistance to antitumor drugs, only limited therapies are currently available for advanced HCC patients, leading to a poor prognosis with a 5-year survival r...

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the second most lethal malignant tumor worldwide, with an increasing incidence and mortality. Due to general resistance to antitumor drugs, only limited therapies are currently available for advanced HCC patients, leading to a poor prognosis with a 5-year survival rate less than 20%. Pyroptosis is a type of inflammation-related programmed cell death and may become a new potential target for cancer therapy. However, the function and prognostic value of pyroptosis-related genes (PRGs) in HCC remain unknown. Here, we identified a total of 58 PRGs reported before and conducted a six-PRG signature via the LASSO regression method in the GEO training cohort, and model efficacy was further validated in an external dataset.
