To validate the potential values of ZIC2, SLC7A11, PSRC1, TMEM106C, TRAIP, DTYMK, FAM72D, TRIP13, and CENPM predicting prognosis, we generated Kaplan–Meier survival curves from the Kaplan–Meier Plotter online database (Nagy et al., 2018) using data for 364 liver cancer patients. Here, ZIC2 is linked to liver cancer.
