Shortening of 3'UTRs correlates with poor prognosis in breast and lung cancer. by Antonio Lembo, Ferdinando Di Cunto, Paolo Provero

“…Moreover, we show that a gene expression signature based only on the expression ratio of alternative 3' UTRs is a strong predictor of survival in both tumors. Genes undergoing 3'UTR shortening in aggressive tumors of the two tissues significantly overlap, and several of them are known to be involved in tumor progression. …”
