Table 3 List of drugs identified as reversing the perturbational gene signature (negative perturbation profiles and therefore recommended) or promoting the perturbational gene signature (positive perturbation profiles and therefore not recommended) between the high- and low-SKP2 ubiquitination signature groups based on the differential gene-expression data in Supplementary File S1. Only drugs with a false-discovery rate < 0.05 were considered. BC cell lines are marked in bold.

From: A gene signature consisting of ubiquitin ligases and deubiquitinating enzymes of SKP2 is associated with clinical outcome in breast cancer
