An lncRNA Model for Predicting the Prognosis of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Patients and ceRNA Mechanism

Sumario:Liver cancer is a highly malignant tumor. Notably, recent studies have found that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a prominent role in the prognosis of patients with liver cancer. Herein, we attempted to construct an lncRNA model to accurately predict the survival rate in liver cancer. Based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, we first identified 1066 lncRNAs with differential expression. The patient data obtained from TCGA were divided into the experimental group and the verification group. According to the difference in lncRNAs, we used single-factor and multi-factor Cox regression to select the genes needed to build the model in the experimental group, which were verified in the verification group. The results showed that the model could accurately predict the survival rate of patients in the high and low risk groups. The reliability of the model was also confirmed by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve. Our model is significantly correlated with different clinicopathological features. Finally, we built a ceRNA network based on lncRNAs, which was used to display miRNAs and mRNAs related to lncRNAs. In summary, we constructed an lncRNA model to predict the survival rate of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.
