In the field of cancer research, Wang and colleague reported OTUD6B-AS1 was downregulated in ccRCC tissue samples, and that patients with low OTUD6B-AS1 expression had shorter overall survival than patients with high OTUD6B-AS1 expression, which showed that the different expression levels of OTUD6B-AS1 indirectly correlated with patient survival (11). This evidence concerns the gene OTUD6B and cancer.
