Abstract

During the past decade, the average 5-year survival rate of patients with Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) has remained < 20%, although the targeted therapies and novel immunotherapy approaches have held promise. Epigenetic modifications could provide prognostic value as molecular biomarkers, and we aimed to identify the independent risk of m6A-related lncRNAs to establish a risk model for the clinical prediction of prognoses in women with LUAD. In this study, we first assessed 31 N6-methyladenosine (m6A)-related lncRNAs associated with overall survival. Moreover, we evaluated the expression of the oncogenic driver and the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) in two female LUAD subtypes (clusters 1 and 2) using consensus clustering. We also found 16 m6A-related lncRNAs as the independent prognostic indicator of women with LUAD and established a risk model developed from these lncRNAs. We comprehensively investigated the correlation between the TIME and m6A-related lncRNA and found that m6A-related lncRNA may significantly affect the immune cell infiltration level in LUAD. In conclusion, our study provides evidence on the prognostic prediction in women with LUAD and may help elucidate the processes and mechanisms of m6A-regulated lncRNAs.
