Research Article: Development of a prognostic model to predict BLCA based on anoikis-related gene signature: preliminary findings

Date Published: 2023-12-04

Abstract:
The prevalence of bladder urothelial carcinoma (BLCA) is significant on a global scale. Anoikis is a type of procedural cell death that has an important role in tumor invasion and metastasis. The advent of single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) approaches has revolutionized the genomics field by providing unprecedented opportunities for elucidating cellular heterogeneity. Understanding the mechanisms associated with anoikis in BLCA is essential to improve its survival rate.

Introduction:
Bladder urothelial carcinoma (BLCA) ranks as the ninth most prevalent cancer globally, exhibiting a significant fatality rate. It is estimated that around 550,000 individuals are diagnosed with this condition annually [1, 2]. Patients with non-muscle invasive BLCA have a high rate of recurrence after surgery [3]. Muscle-invasive BLCA has a poor prognosis, with a 5-year overall survival rate of 40–50% [4]. Because there is a deficiency in identifiable biomarkers, a portion of individuals suffering from severe BLCA…
