Objective: Disulfidptosis is a newly discovered disulfide stress-induced cell death form. Clinical significance and biological mechanisms of disulfidptosis in human cancers need to be further elucidated. Thus, this study was designed to characterize pan-cancer landscape of disulfidptosis across human tumors.

Nonetheless, the implication of ferroptosis in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), which is the most aggressive subtype of breast carcinoma, remains unexplored.
Methods: Three TNBC cohorts-TCGA-TNBC, GSE58812, and METABRIC-were adopted.
Tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) play critical roles in the cell cycle checkpoints and in modulating genomic stability. Here, we aimed to develop a TSG-based prognostic classifier for breast cancer. Gene expression profiles and clinical information of breast cancer were curated from TCGA (discovery set) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) repository (GSE12093 and GSE17705 datasets as testing sets).

This study aimed to establish an in-depth relationship between ferroptosis-related LncRNA (FRlncRNA) and the prognosis as well as immune microenvironment of the patients with BC. We downloaded and integrated the gene expression data and the clinical information of the patients with BC from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database.

Long non‑coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been identified as important regulators of tumorigenesis and tumor metastasis. lncRNA FGD5‑AS1 has been previously reported as a carcinogenic gene, however its role in breast cancer has yet to be investigated.
