PLAAT3 and pancreatic adenocarcinoma: In PAAD cases in TCGA, PLA2G16 expression was positively correlated with its copy number (Pearson's r = 0.51, P < 0.001), but was strongly and negatively correlated with the methylation level of cg09518969 (Pearson's r = −0.64, P < 0.001), a 5’‐cytosine‐phosphodiester bond‐guanine‐3’ site within its gene locus.
