The landscape and biological relevance of aberrant alternative splicing events in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

Aberrant alternative splicing events (AASEs) are key biological processes for tumorigenesis and the rationale for designing splice-switching oligonucleotides (SSOs). However, the landscape of AASEs in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) remains unclear, which undermines the development of SSOs for ESCC. Here, we profiled AASEs based on 125 pairs of RNA-seq libraries. We identified 14,710 AASEs in ESCC, most of which (92.67%) affected...
