Figure 3. Correlations between genotypes of the significant SNPs and their corresponding mRNA expression levels.
For GTEx project, The HBEGF rs4150236 A allele was no associated with mRNA expression levels of HBEGF in (a) normal lung tissue and (b) whole blood; (c) higher expression levels of HBEGF were associated with a better survival in patients with lung cancer (http://kmplot.com/analysis/index.php?p=service&cancer=lung); (d) The ITPR3 rs116454384 T allele was associated with higher mRNA expression levels in normal lung tissue and (e) whole blood from the GTEx project; (f) higher expression levels of ITPR3 were associated with a better survival in patients with lung cancer (http://kmplot.com/analysis/index.php?p=service&cancer=lung).
