Figure 1. Altered expression of mRNAs and lncRNAs across cancer types.
(A) Hierarchically clustered heatmaps of mRNAs and lncRNAs that are differentially expressed (student t-test corrected p-value < 0.05 and fold change > 1.5) in each type of cancer tissues compared to adjacent non-cancerous tissues. (B) Venn diagrams showing up-regulated and down-regulated mRNAs and lncRNAs whose dys-regulated expression pattern was shared by four types of cancer. Literature curated cancer biomarkers were indicated as examples.
