Four ML classifiers: Na\u00efve Bayes, Random Forest, Artificial Neural Network, and XGBoost were employed to evaluate subtype classification performance.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Using lncRNAs alone, XGBoost demonstrated strong performance with an accuracy of 89.2% and AUROC of 0.99. Addition of miRNA or mRNA features to lncRNA marginally improved the accuracy to 90.8% and 92.2%, respectively, while using all the three features together provided no further gain. A sequential key feature identification pipeline (ANOVA, Boruta, SHAP) has identified interpretable subtype-specific biomarker panels, yielding 119, 66, 54, and 24 unique features for Luminal A, Luminal B, HER2+, and Basal subtypes, respectively. Further lncRNA characterization followed by survival analysis revealed significant subtype-specific novel lncRNAs, including CUFF.25255 (LumA), CUFF.20237 and CUFF.3888 (LumB), CUFF.22414 (HER2+), and CUFF.26607 and CUFF.1961 (Basal).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Our findings highlight the diagnostic and biomarker discovery potential of lncRNAs, and the explainable-AI framework implemented here provides a systematic large-scale evaluation of lncRNA-only and integrative models for multi-class BRCA subtyping for BRCA subtyping and can be adopted to other cancers using the existing cancer transcriptomics data in the public databases.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3389\/fbinf.2026.1760987","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,10]],"date-time":"2026-03-10T06:43:13Z","timestamp":1773124993000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["An explainable-AI framework reveals novel lncRNAs specific for breast cancer subtypes"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"6","author":[{"given":"Jai Chand","family":"Patel","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Genetics, Cell Biology and Anatomy, University of Nebraska Medical Center","place":["Omaha, NE, United States"]}]},{"given":"Avinash","family":"Veerappa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Genetics, Cell Biology and Anatomy, University of Nebraska Medical Center","place":["Omaha, NE, United States"]}]},{"given":"Chittibabu","family":"Guda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Genetics, Cell Biology and Anatomy, University of Nebraska Medical Center","place":["Omaha, NE, United States"]},{"name":"Center for Biomedical Informatics, Research and Innovation, University of Nebraska Medical Center","place":["Omaha, NE, United States"]}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"2794","DOI":"10.1200\/JCO.2013.54.1870","article-title":"Luminal B breast cancer: molecular characterization, clinical management, and future perspectives","volume":"32","author":"Ades","year":"2014","journal-title":"J.
