    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To establish a prognostic signature for lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) based on cuproptosis-related long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and to study the immune-related functions of LUAD. METHODS: First, transcriptome data and clinical data related to LUAD were downloaded from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), and cuproptosis-related genes were analyzed to identify cuproptosis-related lncRNAs. Univariate COX analysis, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) analysis, and multivariate COX analysis were performed to analyze the cuproptosis-related lncRNAs, and a prognostic signature was established. Second, univariate COX analysis and multivariate COX analysis were performed for independent prognostic analyses. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, C index, survival curve, nomogram, and principal component analysis (PCA) were performed to evaluate the results of the independent prognostic analyses. Finally, gene enrichment analyses and immune-related function analyses were also carried out. RESULTS: (1) A total of 1,297 cuproptosis-related lncRNAs were screened. (2) A LUAD prognostic signature containing 13 cuproptosis-related lncRNAs was constructed (NIFK-AS1, AC026355.2, SEPSECS-AS1, AL360270.1, AC010999.2, ABCA9-AS1, AC032011.1, AL162632.3, LINC02518, LINC0059, AL031600.2, AP000346.1, AC012409.4). (3) The area under the multi-indicator ROC curves at 1, 3, and 5 years were AUC1 = 0.742, AUC2 = 0.708, and AUC3 = 0.762, respectively. The risk score of the prognostic signature could be used as an independent prognostic factor that was independent of other clinical indicators. (4) The results of gene enrichment analyses showed that 13 biomarkers were primarily related to amoebiasis, the wnt signaling pathway, hematopoietic cell lineage. The ssGSEA volcano map showed significant differences between high- and low-risk groups in immune-related functions, such as human leukocyte antigen (HLA), Type_II_IFN_Reponse, MHC_class_I, and Parainflammation (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Thirteen cuproptosis-related lncRNAs may be clinical molecular biomarkers for the prognosis of LUAD.
