CLIP4 Shows Putative Tumor Suppressor Characteristics in Breast Cancer: An Integrated Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Background: CAP-Gly domain containing linker protein family member 4 (CLIP4) plays an important role in cancers. However, its expression, prognostic value, and biological effect in breast cancer remain unclear. Methods: Data on patients diagnosed with breast cancer were retrieved from the TCGA-BRCA and other public omics databases. The expression profile of CLIP4 was analyzed using Oncomine, bc-GenExMiner, and TCGA. The prognostic value of CLIP4 was determined by Kaplan-Meier Plotter and Human Protein Atlas. Identification of genes co-expressed with CLIP4 and potential mechanism analyses were performed using UALCAN, STRING, Metascape, and GSEA. The epigenetic characteristics of CLIP4 were determined by DiseaseMeth and MEXPRESS. Results: CLIP4 was downregulated and its
