This study intended to determine the molecular subtypes of liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC) on the strength of anoikis-related genes (ARGs) and to assess their prognostic value and prospective relationship with immune cell infiltration and cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs). Univariate Cox regression analysis yielded 66 prognosis-related ARGs and classified LIHC into two distinct subtypes, with subtype A demonstrating overexpression of most prognosis-related ARGs and a significant survival disadvantage. Furthermore, a reliable prediction model was developed using ARGs to evaluate the risk of LIHC patients. This model served as an independent prognostic indicator and a quantitative tool for clinical prognostic prediction. Additionally, subtype-specific differences in immune cell infiltration were observed, and the risk score was potentially linked to immune-related characteristics. Moreover, the study identified a significant association between CAF score and LIHC prognosis, with a low CAF score indicating a favorable patient prognosis. In conclusion, this study reveals the molecular mechanisms underlying the development and progression of LIHC and identifies potential therapeutic targets for the disease.
