Sumario:Reactive oxygen species play a crucial role in the prognosis and tumor microenvironment (TME) of malignant tumors. An ROS-related signature was constructed in gastric cancer (GC) samples from TCGA database. ROS-related genes were obtained from the Molecular Signatures Database. Consensus clustering was used to establish distinct ROS-related subtypes related to different survival and immune cell infiltration patterns. Sequentially, prognostic genes were identified in the ROS-related subtypes, which were used to identify a stable ROS-related signature that predicted the prognosis of GC. Correlation analysis revealed the significance of immune cell iniltration, immunotherapy, and drug sensitivity in gastric cancers with different risks. The putative molecular mechanisms of the different gastric cancer risks were revealed by functional enrichment analysis. A robust nomogram was established to predict the outcome of each gastric cancer. Finally, we verified the expression of the genes involved in the model using RT-qPCR. In conclusion, the ROS-related signature in this study is a novel and stable biomarker associated with TME and immunotherapy responses.
