We found nine protein kinases and PRGs with high expression levels that were mainly detected in HCC cancer stem cells, including POLR2G, PPP2R1A, POLR2L, PRC1, ITBG1BP1, MARCKSL1, EZH2, DTYMK, and AURKA. Survival analysis with the TCGA dataset showed that these genes were associated with poor prognosis of HCC patients. The gene discussed is PPP2R1A; the disease is hepatocellular carcinoma.
