Fig. 1. LncRNA KB-1980E6.3 is upregulated by hypoxia and correlated with a poor prognosis in breast cancer.

a The heat map from RNA sequencing analysis showing the top 100 differentially expressed lncRNAs in hypoxic BT549 cells compared with normoxic BT549 cells. b Expression of 11 randomly selected upregulated lncRNAs were verified by qRT-PCR in hypoxic BT549 cells compared with normoxic BT549 cells. c qRT-PCR was performed to determine the lncRNA KB-1980E6.3 expression in various hypoxic breast cancer cells compared with that in normoxic breast cancer cells. d The heights of the columns in the chart represent the log2-transformed fold changes (tumor vs normal) in lncRNA KB-1980E6.3 expression in 71 paired breast cancer tissues and adjacent non-cancerous tissues. e The relative log2-transformed fold changes (tumor vs normal) of lncRNA KB-1980E6.3 in 71 cases of breast tumors with different clinical stages were measured by qRT-PCR. f, g The lncRNA KB-1980E6.3 expression levels in non-paired (f) or paired (g) breast tumor tissues and normal tissues based on the RNA-seq data extracted from the TCGA database. h Kaplan–Meier survival analysis of overall survival according to the lncRNA KB-1980E6.3 expression levels based on TCGA cohort. Data are shown as mean ± SD of three independent experiments (**P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001).
