Figure 6(i) illustrates that SLC7A11 expression positively correlates with that of LINC00578 (P = 0.0484). Collectively, these findings illustrate that LINC00578 binds UBE2K to inhibit ubiquitination of SLC7A11, thus inhibiting ferroptosis in pancreatic cancer, which renders tumor cells highly invasive and aggressive (Figure 6(j)). This evidence concerns the gene SLC7A11 and pancreatic neoplasm.
