{Abstract}: Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) is a deadly digestive system tumor with a poor prognosis. Recently, necroptosis has been considered as a type of inflammatory programmed cell death. However, the expression of necroptosis-related genes (NRGs) in PAAD and their associations with prognosis remain unclear. NRGs' prediction potential in PAAD samples from The TCGA and GEO datasets was investigated. The prediction model was constructed using Lasso regression. Co-expression analysis showed that gene expression was closely related to necroptosis. NRGs were shown to be somewhat overexpressed in high-risk people even when no other clinical symptoms were present, indicating that they may be utilized in a model to predict PAAD prognosis. GSEA showed immunological and tumor-related pathways in the high-risk group. Based on the findings, immune function and m6A genes differ significantly between the low-risk and high-risk groups. MET, AM25C, MROH9, MYEOV, FAM111B, Y6D, and PPP2R3A might be related to the oncology process for PAAD patients. Moreover, CASKIN2, TLE2, USP20, SPRN, ARSG, MIR106B, and MIR98 might be associated with low-risk patients with PAAD. NRGs and the relationship of the immune function, immune checkpoints, and m6A gene expression with NRGs in PAAD may be considered as potential therapeutic targets that should be further studied.
