Figure Lengend Snippet: he somatic genome characteristics of the TMEscore-related phenotypes in PCa. The distribution of frequently mutated genes in the high TMEscore group (A) and low TMEscore group (B) in PCa. Different colors indicate different alterations. The top barplot indicates TMB, TMEscore, and DFS per patient, and the left barplot shows the mutation frequency of each gene in separate TMEscore groups. The patient annotations show the TMEscores, TCGA molecular subtypes, TMEscore, gender, and survival status. (C) The VAFs of frequently mutated genes in the high TMEscore and low TMEscore groups. Within each group, the scattered dots represent the mean value of signature genes. The thick line represents the median value. (D) Violin plot showing the TMEscores in groups with different microsatellite instability (MSI) status. The Kruskal–Wallis test was used to compare the differences between the two groups. Mutational signatures are associated with the high TMEscore group (E) and low TMEscore group (F). TME, tumor microenvironment; PCa, prostate cancer; TCGA, The cancer genome atlas; TMB, tumor mutational burden; DEGs, differentially expressed genes; DFS, disease-free survival.
