As there are several cancer types in TIMER2 lacking the data of normal tissues, we used the GEPIA2 database to compare the differences of BRIP1 expression between corresponding normal tissues and cancer tissues of DLBC (lymphoid neoplasm diffuse large B cell lymphoma), SARC (sarcoma), THYM (thymoma), and UCS (uterine carcinosarcoma), and higher BRIP1 expressions were noticed in the cancer tissues (Fig. 1c, P<0.05). The gene discussed is BRIP1; the disease is thymoma.
