Abstract:Background: PTPRF interacting protein alpha 1 (PPFIA1) is reportedly related to the occurrence and progression of several types of malignancies. However, its role in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) remains unknown. We aimed to investigate the expression and clinical value of PPFIA1 in ESCC.Methods: The Oncomine, Gene Expression Profiling Enrichment Analysis (GEPIA), and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases were utilized to explore PPFIA1 mRNA expression in esophageal cancer. The associations of PP… Show more
