On the other hand, PDCL3 expression was negatively correlated with MSI in GBMLGG (r  =  -0.3073), LGG (r  =  -0.0920), COAD (r  =  -0.1861), colon adenocarcinoma and rectum adenocarcinoma (COADREAD, r  =  -0.1806), and KIPAN (r  =  -0.1246) (Figure 7B). Here, PDCL3 is linked to rectum adenocarcinoma.
