lncRNA from TCGA

Hi, how can I extract TCGA-LIHC data for long non-coding RNAs in R?

lihc tcga lncrna

Linc should be in the regular mRNA expression files. You just need to read the GTF for linc gene IDs.

Okay, what is the difference between these IDs? And can they be extracted using code in R?

People here won't spoonfeed. Show some effort on what you tried. Take a GTF file that matches the TCGA annotations they used, subset for lncRNAs (it is annotated there) and then filter.
