MITF expression was also evaluated in UM biopsies, confirming its increased expression in tumor tissue (fold change = 25.5, p-value = 0.002); the significant positive expression correlation between LINC00518 and MITF mRNA was confirmed (r-value = 0.78, p-value ≤ 0.001), strengthening our hypothesis also in patient tissues. Here, MITF is linked to neoplasm.
