Abstract
Ovarian cancer (OC) is the most fatal, gynecological malignancy. Compared with advanced ovarian cancer, the 5 year survival rate of early ovarian cancer is significantly improved, and predicting early detection and diagnosis is very important to improve the prognosis of OC. Recent research has found a new way of cell death: disulfidptosis. Under glucose starvation, abnormal accumulation of disulfide molecules such as Cystine in SLC7A11 overexpression cells induced disulfide stress to trigger cell death. Studies of disulfidptosis are still in their infancy and its role in ovarian cancer progression is unclear. In this study, we used a public database to detect the expression and mutations of disulfidptosis-related genes in OC. Cluster analysis was performed based on disulfidptosis-related genes, and disulfidptosis differential expression genes were analyzed. A prognostic risk model was constructed using three disulfidptosis-related genes, and the reasons for differences in prognosis were explored through immune infiltration analysis and drug sensitivity analysis. The prognostic characteristics of transcriptome based on disulfidptosis-related genes are closely related to the prognosis of OC patients. Finally, quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expression of three prognostic genes in clinical OC samples.Our study establishes a link between disulfidptosis and OC, providing new ideas for personalized and precise treatment of OC.
