We found that RPL27A was significantly highly expressed in many kinds of cancers (P < 0.05), including breast invasive carcinoma (BRCA), cholangiocarcinoma (CHOL), colon adenocarcinoma (COAD), esophageal carcinoma (ESCA), kidney chromophobe (KICH), kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), kidney renal papillary cell carcinoma (KIRP), HCC, lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC), prostate adenocarcinoma (PRAD), and rectum adenocarcinoma (READ) (Fig. 1a). The gene discussed is RPL27A; the disease is squamous cell lung carcinoma.
