A Novel Necroptosis-Associated IncRNAs Signature for Prognosis of Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Purpose: The prognosis of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is poor. Necroptosis is a novel programmed form of necrotic cell death. The prognostic value of necroptosis-associated lncRNAs expression in HNSCC has not been explored. Methods: We downloaded mRNA expression data of HNSCC patients from TCGA databases. Prognostic lncRNAs were identified by univariate Cox regression. LASSO was used to establish a model with necroptosis-related lncRNAs. Kaplan-Meier analysis and ROC were applied to verify the model. Finally, functional studies including gene set enrichment analyses, immune microenvironment analysis, and anti-tumor compound IC50 prediction were performed. Results: We identified 1,117 necroptosis-related lncRNAs. The Cox regression showed 55 lncRNAs we
