Development of metastasis-associated seven gene signature for predicting lung adenocarcinoma prognosis using single-cell RNA sequencing data
Metastasis is the primary cause of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD)-related death. This study evaluated the metastasis-associated genes (MAGs) in single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data from LUAD tissues and developed a MAG signature to predict overall survival (OS) of LUAD patients. The LUAD scRNA-se...
