Moreover, the findings of the prognostic significance and discriminative power of TAF1D across cancers indicated that in four cancers, LUAD, KIRP, KIPAN and LIHC, the upregulation of TAF1D was closely related to poor prognosis and had good discriminatory potential, especially in LIHC (AUC=0.915), which indicates that TAF1D may be crucial to the development of the aforementioned malignancies (Fig. 1 B-C). The gene discussed is TAF1D; the disease is cancer.
