A signature based on 11 autophagy genes for prognosis prediction of colorectal cancer.
<h4>Aim</h4>To develop an autophagy-gene-based signature that could help to anticipate the therapeutic effects of Colorectal Cancer (CRC).<h4>Methods</h4>We downloaded the gene expression profiles of CRC samples from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Gene Expression Omni...
