Abstract
Liver cancer is a generic term referring to several cancer types arising from the liver. Every year, liver cancer causes lots of deaths and other burdens to the people all over the world. Though the techniques in the diagnosis and therapy of liver cancer have undergone significant advances, the current status of treating liver cancer is not satisfactory enough. The improvement of techniques for the prognosis of liver cancer patients will be a great supplement for the treatment of liver cancer. Cuproptosis is a newly identified regulatory cell death type, which may have a close connection to liver cancer pathology. Here, we developed a prognostic model for liver cancer based on the cuproptosis-related mRNAs and lncRNAs. This model can not only effectively predict the potential survival of liver cancer patients, but also be applied to evaluate the infiltration of immune cell, tumor mutation burden, and sensitivity to anti-tumor drugs in liver cancer. In addition, this model has been successfully validated in lots of liver cancer patients' data. In summary, we wish this model can become a helpful tool for clinical use in the therapy of liver cancer.
