Genome-wide maps of chromatin state in lung adenocarcinoma cells

We investigated the association between genetic variants in the histone modification regions and the prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma after curative surgery. Potentially functional SNPs were selected using integrated analysis of ChIP-seq and RNA-seq. The SNPs were analyzed in a discovery set (n=166) and a validation set (n=238). The associations of the SNPs with overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were analyzed. This study showed that genetic variants in the histone modification regions could predict the prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma after surgery. Examination of 2 different histone modifications in lung adenocarcinoma cells.
