Moreover, DUOX1 expression was associatedwith genes that inhibit tumor progression (Eunet al., 2017), and patients with high DUOX1expression presented longer disease-free survival and overall survival comparedwith those with low expression of DUOX1, suggesting that DUOX1 expression couldbe a potential prognostic tool for patients with liver tumors (Chenet al., 2016; Eun etal., 2017). This evidence concerns the gene DUOX1 and neoplasm.
