Telomerase related molecular subtype and risk model reveal immune activity and evaluate prognosis and immunotherapy response in prostate cancer

Prostate cancer ranks among the six most lethal malignancies worldwide. Telomerase, a reverse transcriptase enzyme, plays a pivotal role in extending cellular telomeres and is intimately associated with cell proliferation and division. However, the interconnection between prostate cancer and telomerase-related genes (TEASEs) remains unclear.
