description Uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC) is the second most common gynecological cancer in the world. With the increased occurrence of UCEC and the stagnation of research in the field, there is a pressing need to identify novel UCEC biomarkers. Disulfidptosis is a novel form of cell death, but its role in UCEC is unclear. We integrate differential analysis and the XGBoost algorithm to determine a disulfidptosis-related characteristic gene (DRCG), namely LRPPRC. By prediction and verification based on online databases, we construct a regulatory network of ceRNA in line with the scientific hypothesis, including a ceRNA regulatory axis and two mRNA-miRNA regulatory axes, i.e., mRNA LRPPRC/miRNA hsa-miR-616-5p/lncRNA TSPEAR-AS2, mRNA LRPPRC/miRNA hsa-miR-4658, and mRNA LRPPRC/miRNA hsa-miR-6783-5p. We use machine learning methods such as GBM to screen out seven disulfidptosis-related characteristic lncRNAs (DRCLs) as predictors, and build a risk prediction model with good prediction ability. SCORE = (1.136*LINC02449) + (−2.173*KIF9-AS1) + <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mo>(</mo><mo>−</mo></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula>0.235*ACBD3-AS1) + (1.830*AL354892.3) + (−1.314*AC093677.2) + (0.636*AC113361.1) + (−0.589*CDC37L1-DT). The ROC curve shows that in the training set samples, the AUCs for predicting 1-, 3-, 6-, and 10-year OS are 0.804, 0.724, 0.719, and 0.846, respectively. In the test set samples, the AUCs for predicting 1-, 3-, 6-, and 10-year OS are 0.615, 0.657, 0.687, and 0.702, respectively. In all samples, the AUCs for predicting 1-, 3-, 6-, and 10-year OS are 0.752, 0.706, 0.705, and 0.834, respectively. CP724714 has been screened as a potential therapy option for individuals who have a high risk of developing UCEC. Two subtypes of disulfidptosis-related genes (DRGs) and two subtypes of DRCLs are obtained by NMF method. We find that subtype N1 of DRGs is mainly enriched in various metabolic pathways, and subtype N1 may play a significant role in the process of disulfidptosis. Our study confirms for the first time that disulfidptosis plays a role in UCEC. Our findings help improve the prognosis and treatment of UCEC.
