Firstly, we analyzed DUXAP8 and LINC00460 coexpressed protein‐coding genes in esophageal cancer and submitted DUXAP8 or LINC00460 coexpressed genes to DAVID Functional Annotation Tool for GO enrichment analysis to demonstrate their potential function and affected pathways.29 The results of GO and pathway analyses showed that DUXAP8 coexpressed PCGs are enriched in cell division, cell cycle and DNA repair, while LINC00460 coexpressed PCGs are enriched in alternative splicing, focal adhesion, and cell‐cell junction et al (Figure 4C,D). The gene discussed is LINC00460; the disease is esophageal cancer.
