High expression of the ferroptosis‐associated MGST1 gene in relation to poor outcome and maladjusted immune cell infiltration in uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma

Uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC) tightly correlates with dysregulated iron homeostasis. MGST1 (microsomal glutathione S‐transferase 1) involves in the regulation of oxidative stress and plays a key role in inhibiting iron‐mediated cell death in cancer cells. Hence, we aimed to illuminate the characteristics of MGST1 expression and prognosis in UCEC using bioinformatics prediction to provide novel perspectives for theoretical supplementation and ferroptosis‐based immunotherapy.
