In order to test the association between TDP-43 regulated miRNAs and patient survival in cancer using samples independent from these previous studies, we collected miRNA expression profiles of 134 lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC), 191 lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and 487 GBM, and gene expression profiles of 133 LUSC, 231 LUAD and 538 GBM from The Cancer Genome of Atlas (TCGA), together with information on the patient survival. Here, TARDBP is linked to lung adenocarcinoma.
