Core Tip |
In the present study, we identified a total of 42 senescence-associated genes (SAGs) and found seven of them were significantly downregulated in senescent cells and upregulated in HCC tissues. By using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator, we constructed a seven-SAG signature that could predict the overall survival (OS) of hepatocellular carcinoma. This seven-SAG signature was further validated and developed in another independent dataset from The Cancer Genome Atlas project. Moreover, our risk score system showed better utility in predicting the OS than classic serum biomarker α-fetoprotein. |
