BIRC5 and breast carcinoma: Another eight ARGs (BCL2, BIRC5, EIF4EBP1, ERO1L, FOS, GAPDH, ITPR1, and VEGFA) were explored, and the author found that these genes not only were significantly associated with overall survival but also could predict distant metastasis-free survival in breast cancer (Gu et al., 2016).
