The N6-Methyladenosine- (m6A-) Associated Genes Act as Strong Key Biomarkers for the Prognosis of Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma

Background. Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) has become the major cause of cancer-related deaths globally. The m6A (N6-methyladenosine) alteration plays a crucial function in carcinogenesis and tumor progression. The role of genes related to m6A and their expression level in pancreatic cancer is not...

About 23 extensively reported m6A RNA methylation regulators were identified through the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database.
