This study aimed at constructing a diagnostic immune risk score (dIRS) system and a prognostic immune risk score (pIRS) system for diagnose and prognosis of breast cancer (BC). The gene expression data of BC were downloaded from TCGA dataset (training set), and from GSE65194, GSE29044, GSE42568, and GSE20685 (validation sets). Then, the immune cell type proportions in each dataset were assessed using EPIC tool, and the dIRS system was built based on the SVM-RFE and RF-VIMP algorithms. Subsequently, the pIRS system and the nomogram survival model were established separately using penalized and rms packages. Finally, the differential expressed genes (DEGs) between low and high pIRS groups were screened, and submitted for functional analysis. The dIRS system consisted of B cells, CD8 + T cells, endothelial cells, NK cells, and other cells had high accuracy in distinguishing BC patients from the healthy controls (AUROC >0.7). Subsequently, the pIRS system with the five prognosis-associated immune-infiltrating cell was constructed, and Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated that the survival rate of low pIRS group was significantly higher than that of high pIRS group ( p < 0.05). Based on age, pathologic stage and the pIRS values, the nomogram survival model was built. The AUROC value, Specificity value, Sensitivity value and C-index of the nomogram survival model were higher than 0.7000, and had a good predictive ability for BC. Finally, a total of 539 DEGs were identified, and significantly enriched in six pathways. The dIRS system and the pIRS system composed of immune cells might be critical for the diagnosis and prognosis of BC patients.
