Association analysis of genes in CAF signatures with BCR, MET and immune checkpoints based on the gene expression data in GSE116918 dataset. A The expression levels of four randomly selected genes in the BCRFS-related CAF signature, such as ACPP, KCTD14, and THBS2 between BCR and non-BCR groups. B The expression of four randomly selected genes in the MFS-related CAF signature, such as HOPX, TMEM132A, ZNF467, and TMEM132A between MET and non-MET groups. C Correlation analysis of BCRFS-related CAF signature with immune checkpoints. CAF Cancer-associated fibroblast, BCR Biochemical recurrence, MET Metastasis, BCRFS Biochemical recurrence-free survival, MFS Biochemical recurrence-free survival, PSA Prostate specific antigen
