Expression of MDL1 and MDL1AS in LARC Patients Predict 5-Year Survival Given the differential expression of MDL1AS between rectal cancer cells and the surrounding normal tissue ( Figure 1 A) and that the differences in levels of expression for this lncRNA were almost significant in patients with long survival when compared to those with lower survival ( p = 0.053, Table 1 ), we decided to study more deeply the connections between the expression of MDL1/MDL1AS and LARC patient survival.
