Abstract:Background: Aberrant promoter methylation and its resultant aberrant gene expression are important epigenetic mechanisms that promote the development of breast cancer (BC). However, the prognostic value of this type of methylation-driven gene in BC is unknown.Methods: To identify DNA methylation-driven long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), a comprehensive analysis of RNA-sequencing and DNA methylation data of 1,200 clinical samples was performed.Differentially expressed lncRNAs (DELs) and survival-related lncRNAs in… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
