Neither the copy number of this chromosomal region, which also contains other imprinted genes [132], nor the expression of NLRP2 or MIR371 was associated with drug response (Additional file 7: Table S4; Additional file 8: Table S5), suggesting that methylation of the 5′ UTR of NLRP2 could potentially influence the expression of some additional transcript or transcripts, which may affect tumor cell sensitivity to kinase inhibitors. Here, NLRP2 is linked to neoplasm.
