Key Points

To construct an immune network and evaluate prognostic significance of checkpoint genes in endometrial cancer.
Used in silico techniques to construct immune networks
Applied STRING for protein-protein interactions
Utilized MCODE for identifying significant modules
Employed GEPIA2 for expression data analysis
Identified checkpoint-centered hubs within the immune network
Highlighted immune programs with prognostic relevance
Supported rationale for biomarker-guided immunotherapy

Abstract

This in silico immune network highlights checkpoint centered hubs and coordinated immune programs with prognostic relevance in endometrial cancer, providing a rationale for biomarker guided immunotherapy development and patient stratification. Validation in independent cohorts and correlation with clinicopathologic and treatment response data are needed to support clinical translation.
