Fig. 1From: Data mining of bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing introduces OBI1-AS1 as an astrocyte marker with possible role in glioma recurrence and progressionA In this volcano plot, differentially expressed LncRNAs in GBM compared to LGG are presented. The names of the top 10 with the least FDR are displayed in the figure with OBI1-AS1 having the highest |Log2FC|. Positive values on the x-axis indicate increased expression in LGG vs GBM. B RNA-Seq Analysis of 120 glioma samples revealed decreased of OBI1-AS1 expression in GBM compared to LGG by Log2FC = − 3.67. C Based on survival analysis of 338 glioma patients, those with low expression of OBI1-AS1 exhibited significantly poorer prognosis with Hazard Ratio (HR) = 0.14. D Real-time PCR results confirmed our DEA findings. As is presented, OBI1-AS1 was overexpressed in non-GBM glioma samples by log2FC = − 3.54 which was in accordance with our RNA-Seq data analysis findings (p value < 0.0001). E The ROC curve illustrated AUC equal to 81% and 85% for real-time PCR and RNA-seq data, respectively, with 52 samples (26 for GBM and 26 for LGG) for real-time PCR and 698 for RNA-seq investigation. These AUCs also highlight agreement between RNA-seq and real-time PCR findings. F Expression of OBI1-AS1 decreased after recurrence (p value = 0.005). In 12 of the 14 patient, OBI1-AS1 expression decreased after recurrenceBack to article page
