Sumario:Abstract Background Ferroptosis is a recently recognised new type of cell death which may be a potential target for cancer therapy. In the present study, we aimed to screen ferroptosis-related differentially expressed long non-coding RNAs as biomarkers to predict the outcome of kidney renal clear cell carcinoma. Methods RNAseq count data and corresponding clinical information were obtained from the Cancer Genome Atlas database. Lists of ferroptosis-related genes and long non-coding RNAs were obtained from the FerrDb and GENCODE databases, respectively. The candidate prognostic signatures were screened by Cox regression analyses and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator analyses. Results Three ferroptosis-related long non-coding RNAs (DUXAP8, LINC02609, and LUCAT1) were significantly correlated with the overall survival of kidney renal clear cell carcinoma independently. Kidney renal clear cell carcinoma patients with high-risk values displayed worse OS. Meanwhile, the expression of these three ferroptosis-related long non-coding RNAs and their risk scores were significantly correlated with clinicopathological features. Principal component analyses showed that patients with kidney renal clear cell carcinoma have differential risk values were well distinguished by the three ferroptosis-related long non-coding RNAs. Conclusions The present study suggests that the risk assessment model constructed by these three ferroptosis-related long non-coding RNAs could accurately predict the outcome of kidney renal clear cell carcinoma. We also provide a novel perspective for cancer prognosis screening.
