Figure 1 The mRNA expression analysis of MTHFD2. (A) MTHFD2 expression profile across all tumor samples and normal tissues with dot plot. Red: MTHFD2 high expression in cancer tissues. Green: MTHFD2 low expression in cancer tissues. Black: No difference between tumor and normal tissues. Red box indicates LGG. (B) MTHFD2 differential expression in normal and LGG samples. Detailed MTHFD2 expression among LGG patients was assessed using GSE60898 dataset based on (C) Age, (D) BRAF genetic status, (E) Locations, (F) Primary or recurrent tumor, and (G) Primary tumor that further progressed.
