LAUSR

Lung adenocarcinoma is increasingly harmful to society and individuals as cancer with an inferior prognosis and insensitive to chemotherapy. Previous studies have demonstrated that oxidative stress and lncRNAs play a vital role in many biological processes. Therefore, we explored the role of lncRNAs associated with oxidative stress in the prognosis and survival of LUAD patients. We examined the expression profiles of lncRNAs and oxidative stress genes in this study. A prognosis prediction model and a nomogram were built based on oxidative stress-related lncRNAs. Functional and drug sensitivity analyses were also performed depending on oxidative stress-related lncRNA signature. Moreover, we investigated the relationship between immune response and immunotherapy. The results showed that a risk scoring model based on 16 critical oxidative stress lncRNAs was able to distinguish the clinical status of LUAD and better predict the prognosis and survival. Additionally, the model demonstrated a close correlation with the tumor immune system, and these key lncRNAs also revealed the relationship between LUAD and chemotherapeutic drug sensitivity. Our work aims to provide new perspectives and new ideas for the treatment and management of LUAD.
