To explore potential effects of YTHDF2 expression on glioma functions, we identified the genes that positively correlated with YTHDF2 expression in all primary gliomas of four different datasets, including the CGGA RNA-seq (n = 325) and TCGA RNA-seq (n = 595) cohorts used in our previous study [9] and the extra two cohorts in this study (Fig. 1Q). Here, YTHDF2 is linked to central nervous system cancer.
