Integrating RNA-seq and scRNA-seq to explore the prognostic features and immune landscape of exosome-related genes in breast cancer metastasis by Guanyou Huang, Yong Yu, Heng Su, Hongchuan Gan, Liangzhao Chu

“…Compared to the low-risk group, the high-risk group exhibits increased immune cell infiltration and higher levels of immune evasion. scRNA-seq data reveal that high-risk cells have significantly higher risk scores and exhibit notable differences in signalling pathways and intercellular communication patterns.Conclusions This study presents a novel risk score model based on exosome-related genes, validated by comprehensive analyses including differential expression, survival analysis and external dataset validation. The model’s clinical significance is reinforced through its ability to stratify patients into high- and low-risk groups with distinct survival outcomes and immune landscape characteristics. …”
