Methylation and functional enrichment studies indicated possible function of MMD in tumor progression, whereas immune infiltration data suggested its involvement in tumor immune evasion.

The quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) data demonstrated high MMD levels in Hep-3B cells, and its suppression impeded Hep-3B cell growth.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>MMD was abnormally expressed in various tumors and was closely associated with tumor prognosis.
