PHF5A and cancer: Notably, Fig. 7A demonstrated a considerably correlation of PHF5A expression with OS prognosis in 6 cancers and Kaplan–Meier curves in these 6 cancers were shown in Fig. 7B. As we could see, in patients with high expression levels of PHF5A, a poorer prognosis for OS was observed in cases of ACC, LIHC, LUAD, as well as PAAD, while in patients with low PHF5A expression, a poorer prognosis for OS was observed in cases of KIRC and LUSC.
