Systematic Identification of Survival-Associated Alternative Splicing Events in Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: There is growing evidence that aberrant alternative splicing (AS) is highly correlated with driving tumorigenesis, but its function in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) remains to be discovered. In this study, we obtained the level-3 RNA sequencing and clinical data of KIRC from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TGCA). Combining with the splicing event detail information from TGCA SpliceSeq database, we established the independent prognosis signatures for KIRC with the univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses. Then, we used the Kaplan-Meier analysis and receiver operating characteristic curves (ROCs) to assess the accuracy of prognosis signatures. We also constructed the regulatory network of splicing factors (SFs) and AS events. Our results showed that a total of 12029 survival-a
