Figure 1 Expression profile of lincRNA transcripts in GCA. A. Hierarchical clustering map. LincRNA transcripts of tumor tissues (T) and adjacent normal tissues (N) of five patients with GCA were detected. In the heatmap, columns represent samples, and rows represent each gene. Red and green colors indicate high and low expression, respectively. The scale of expression level is shown on the horizontal bar. B. Scatter plot of differentially expressed lincRNAs in tumor tissues and adjacent normal tissues. Red and green colors indicate high and low expression, respectively.
