RPS8 and neoplasm: Among the RPs that were found to be associated with poor overall HCC survival in our present study, RPL18 (Figure 3-7) and RPS27 (Figure 3-13) have been reported in cell growth or proliferation regulation; RPL23 (Figure 3-10) and RPL5 (Figure 3-22) have been reported in tumor suppressor gene regulation; RPL35A (Figure 3-17) has been reported in cell apoptosis regulation; RPLP0 (Figure 3-24) was reported to be involved in DNA repair; RPS14 (Figure 3-29) and RPS8 (Figure 3-36) have been reported in self-translation regulation in many human cancers, HCC included [36,37,38].
