Integrative genomics identifies SHPRH as a tumor suppressor gene in lung adenocarcinoma that regulates DNA damage response.

These data suggest that SHPRH is a tumor suppressor gene in LUAD, whereby its expression is associated with more favorable patient outcomes, reduced tumor and mutational burden, and may serve as a predictor of response to DNA damage. Thus, further exploration into the role of SHPRH in LUAD development may make it a valuable biomarker for predicting LUAD risk and prognosis.
