Alternative splicing acts as an independent prognosticator in ovarian carcinoma. (PubMed, Sci Rep)
In addition, survival-related AS events might be involved in tumor-related pathways including base excision repair and pyrimidine metabolism pathways, and some splicing factors might be correlated with prognosis-related AS events, including SPEN, SF3B5, RNPC3, LUC7L3, SRSF11 and PRPF38B. Our study constructs an independent prognostic signature for predicting ovarian cancer patients' survival outcome and contributes to elucidating the underlying mechanism of AS in tumor development.
