Abstract excerpt
Transcriptional profile-based subtypes of cancer are often viewed as identifying different diseases from the same tissue origin. Understanding the mechanisms driving the subtypes may be key in development of novel therapeutics but is challenged by lineage-specific expression signals. Using a t-test statistics approach, we compared gene expression subtypes across 12 tumor types, which identified eight...
