Identification of novel lactate metabolism-related lncRNAs with prognostic value for bladder cancer.

Bladder cancer (BCA) has high recurrence and metastasis rates, and current treatment options show limited efficacy and significant adverse effects. It is crucial to find diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets with clinical value. This study aimed to identify lactate metabolism-related lncRNAs (LM_lncRNAs) to establish a model for evaluating bladder cancer prognosis.

Identification of novel lactate metabolism signatures and molecular subtypes for prognosis in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Evidence has shown that lactate, an immune signaling molecule, is associated with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression and immune suppression. Therefore, identifying lactate metabolism-related molecules is a promising therapeutic strategy to inhibit the development of HCC and overcome chemotherapy resistance. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are related to tumorigenesis and metastasis.
