Abstract

Abstract : Kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) is increasing in incidence worldwide, with poor and unpredictable patient prognosis limited by diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. New genes are urgently needed to improve this situation. The ankyrin repeat and suppressor of the cytokine signaling (SOCS) box (ASB) family are a promising class of tumorigenesis-related genes. We examined the expression and mutation of 18 ASB genes in various tumors for this study. The findings revealed that ASB genes exhibit significant copy number variation (CNV) and single nucleotide variation (SNV). There were substantial variations in ASB gene expression in different tumor tissues, and different levels of methylation of ASB genes affected the gene expression and tumor progression. By applying LASSO regression analysis, we established a KIRC survival model based on five ASB genes (ASB6, ASB7, ASB8, ASB13, and ASB17). Additionally, ROC curve analysis was used to assess the survival model's accuracy. Through univariate and multivariate COX regression analysis, we demonstrated that the model's risk score might be an independent risk factor for individuals with KIRC. In summary, our KIRC survival model could accurately predict patients' future survival. Further, we also quantified the survival model through a nomogram. This series of findings confirmed that ASB genes are potential predictive markers and targeted therapies for KIRC. Our KIRC survival model based on five ASB genes can help more clinical practitioners make accurate judgments about the prognosis of KIRC patients.
