Abstract
- Background: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an essential role in the occurrence and prognosis of tumors, and it has great potential as biomarkers of tumors. However, the roles of Necroptosis-related lncRNA (NRLs) in Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) remain elusive.Methods: We comprehensively analyzed the gene expression and clinical information of 964 HNSCC in four cohorts. LASSO regression was utilized to construct a necroptosis-related lncRNA prognosis signature (NLPS). We used univariate and multivariate regression to assess the independent prognostic value of NLPS. Based on the optimal cut-off, patients were divided into high- and low-risk groups. In addition, the immune profile, multi-omics alteration, and pharmacological landscape of NLPS were further revealed.Results: A total of 21 NRLs associated with survival were identified by univariate regression in four cohorts. We constructed and validated a best prognostic model (NLPS). Compared to the low-risk group, patients in the high group demonstrated a more dismal prognosis. After adjusting for clinical features by multivariate analysis, NLPS still displayed independent prognostic value. Additionally, further analysis found that patients in the low-risk group showed more abundant immune cell infiltration and immunotherapy response. In contrast, patients in the high-risk group were more sensitive to multiple chemotherapeutic agents.Conclusion: As a promising tool, the establishment of NLPS provides guidance and assistance in the clinical management and personalized treatment of HNSCC.
