Figure 3. Mutation genes, functional enrichment, tumor heterogeneity and stemness and TME. (A) waterfall plot showing top 10 differentially mutation genes between high- and low- SRLPI groups for prostate cancer patients in TCGA database; (B) lollipop plot showing the relationship between tumor stemness and heterogeneity indicators and SRLPI score in TCGA database; (C) heatmap showing differences of enriched hallmarks between high- and low- SRLPI groups in TCGA database; (D) heatmap showing differences of enriched pathways between high- and low- SRLPI groups in TCGA database; (E) lollipop plot showing the relationship between significant immune checkpoints and SRLPI score with correlation coefficient ≥0.3 in TCGA database; (F) lollipop plot showing the relationship between TME scores and SRLPI score in TCGA database. Abbreviations: SRLPI: senescence-related lncRNA prognostic index; TME: tumor immune microenvironment; TIDE: tumor immune dysfunction and exclusion; CAFs: cancer-associated fibroblasts; NK: nature killer. Note: prostate cancer patients were divided into high- and low- risk groups according to the median value of SRLPI score.
