An optimal prognostic model based on gene expression for clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most prevalent type of RCC; however, prognostic prediction tools for ccRCC are scant. Developing mRNA or long non-coding RNA (lncRNA)-based risk assessment tools may improve the prognosis in patients with ccRCC. RNA-sequencing and prognostic data from patients with ccRCC were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas and the European Bioinformatics Institute Array database at the National Center for Biotechnology Information. Differentially expressed (DE) RNAs (DERs) and prognostic DERs were screened between less favorable and favorable prognoses using the limma package in R 3.4.1, and analyzed using univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses, respectively. Risk score models were constructed using optimal combinations of DEmRNAs and DEl
