Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the subtype with the worst prognosis of breast cancer. Ferroptosis, a novel iron-dependent programmed cell death, has an increasingly important role in tumorigenesis and development. However, there is still a lack of research on the relationship between ferroptosis-related genes and the prognosis of TNBC. In this study, we obtained the gene expression profile of TNBC patients and matched clinical data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Univariate Cox analysis was used to screen out ferroptosis-related genes associated with TNBC prognosis. Then, the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis was employed to establish a prognostic prediction model. A 15-ferroptosis-related gene prognostic prediction model was developed, which classified patients into low-risk (LR) or high-risk (HR) groups. Kaplan-Meier analysis results showed that the prognosis of the LR group was better. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve also confirmed the satisfactory predictive ability of this model. Evaluation of the immune microenvironment of TNBC patients in the HR and LR group suggested these 15 ferroptosis-related genes might affect the prognosis of TNBC by regulating the tumor microenvironment. Our prognostic model can provide a theoretical basis for accurate prognosis prediction of TNBC in clinical practice. |
