Sumario:BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer is one of the most common gastrointestinal malignancies globally. Necroptosis has been proved to play a role in the occurrence and development of the tumor, which makes it a new target for molecular therapy. However, the role of necroptosis in colorectal cancer remains unknown yet. Our study aims to build a prognostic signature of necroptosis-related lncRNAs (nrlncRNAs) to predict the outcomes of patients with colorectal cancer and facilitate in anticancer therapy. METHOD: We obtained RNA-seq and clinical data of colorectal adenocarcinoma from the TCGA database and got prognosis-related nrlncRNAs by univariate regression analysis. Then, we carried out the LASSO regression and multivariate regression analysis to build the prognostic signature, whose predictive ability was tested by the Kaplan-Meier as well as ROC curves and verified by the internal cohort. Moreover, we divided the cohort into 2 groups based on median of risk scores: high- and low-risk groups. By analyzing the difference in the tumor microenvironment, microsatellite instability, and tumor mutation burden between the two groups, we explored the potential chemotherapy and immunotherapy drugs. RESULTS: We screened out 9 nrlncRNAs and built a prognostic signature based on them. With its good prognostic ability, the risk scores can act as an independent prognostic factor for patients with colorectal cancer. The overall survival rate of patients in high-risk group was significantly higher than the low-risk one. Furthermore, risk scores can also give us hints about the tumor microenvironment and facilitate in predicting the response to the CTLA-4 blocker treatment and other chemotherapeutic agents with potential efficacy such as cisplatin and staurosporine. CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, our prognostic signature of necroptosis-related lncRNAs can facilitate in predicting the prognosis and response to the anticancer therapy of colorectal cancer patients.
