Overall survival (OS, n = 260) and disease free survive l (DFS, n = 231) analysis on the TCGA sarcoma dataset revealed strong associations between the elevated expression levels of these proteins and poor OS (p = 0.005, Fig. 7c) and poor DFS (p = 0.02, Fig. 7d), thus implicating LIN28B and HMGA2 as clinically relevant biomarkers for sarcoma. Here, HMGA2 is linked to sarcoma.
