While Solute Carrier Family 7 Member 11 (SLC7A11) plays key roles in ferroptosis resistance, redox homeostasis and tumor progression, its epigenetic regulation, diagnostic potential, and immunological functions in LUSC remain poorly understood.<h4>Methods</h4>Multi-omics data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC), Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and an in-house cohorts of 173 LUSC patients were integrated to characterize SLC7A11 DNA methylation, mRNA, and protein levels. Here, SLC17A1 is linked to cancer.
