ETS相关基因(ERG)和磷酸酶和张力蛋白同源物(PTEN)的表达与前列腺癌囊膜浸润相关

Expression of ETS related gene (ERG) and phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) correlates with prostate cancer capsular penetration
Abstract:
The disclosure provides methods for characterizing a prostate cancer sample by detecting expression of ERG, PTEN or both, changes in which relative to a normal control are shown herein to be correlated with prostate cancer capsular penetration and more aggressive forms of prostate cancer. Such methods are useful for the prognosis of prostate cancer capsular penetration and for making treatment decisions in patients with prostate cancer that has penetrated the capsule. Also provided are kits that can be used with such methods.
