Figure 2. Associations among mutations in HRR genes, TMB and the MSI status. (A–C) Bar plots showing the percentage of TMB-high patients in the HRR-mut group compared with the HRR-wt group in the Chinese (A) and TCGA (C) cohorts. (B–D) Bar plots showing the percentage of MSI-H patients in the HRR-mut group compared with the HRR-wt group in the Chinese (B) and TCGA (D) cohorts. Comparisons between the groups were performed with Fisher’s exact test (* P < 0.05; ** P < 0.01; *** P < 0.001; ns, P > 0.05). (E, F) Venn diagrams illustrating the overlap between patients with HRR-mut, TMB-H, and MSI-H COAD in the Chinese (E) and TCGA (F) cohorts.
