Figure 1. — LncRNA expression across 8 cancer types. (A) Schematic of pipeline used to create a comprehensive transcriptome annotation, filter lowly expressed transcripts, and identify altered lncRNAs. (B) Distribution of the number of cancer types that lncRNAs (blue) and protein coding genes (red) are enriched in. While coding genes generally have enriched expression across all cancers, lncRNAs tend to be less broadly enriched across multiple cancers. The inset pie chart shows the distribution of lncRNAs with enriched expression in only a single cancer: bladder urothelial carcinoma (BLCA), breast invasive carcinoma (BRCA), colorectal adenocarcinoma (CRC), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), kidney renal cell carcinoma (KIRC), lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC), and uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC).
