Furthermore, in another GEO dataset, GSE135083, the SOX9 expression was also elevated in CDDP-resistant nasopharyngeal carcinoma 5-8F cells (5-8F DDP) compared to CDDP-sensitive 5-8F cells (5-8F) (LogFC = 3.807, p < 0.001) (Figure 5(b)). This evidence concerns the gene SOX9 and nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
