Identification of therapeutic targets and prognostic biomarkers from the hnRNP family in invasive breast carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNPs) are RNA-binding proteins that are reported to play a crucial role in the pathogenic process of multiple malignancies. However, their expression patterns, clinical application significance and prognostic values in invasive breast carcinoma (BRCA) remain unknown. In this study, we investigated hnRNP family members in BRCA using accumulated data from Oncomine 4.5, UALCAN Web portal and other available databases. We explored the expression and prognostic value level of hnRNPs in BRCA. We further analyzed their association with the clinicopathological features of BRCA patients. Subsequently, we calculated the alteration frequency of hnRNPs, constructed the interaction network of hnRNPs, and examined the potential coexpression genes of hnRNPs, re
