Presentanalysis show that there are two upregulated genes in PCa regarding to controls: HP(Haptoglobin)and HLA-G(Human Leukocyte Antigen-G). On the other hand, there are seven downregulated genes, where TP53TG3 and their transcripts should be highlighted.Also, we make a comparison between amoreaggressive PCa phenotype and the rest of PCa samples to investigate about genes implicated in aggressiveness, obtaining a high number of upregulated genesincludingCENPF, DLGAP5 and RRM2, among others.These genescould serve as predictive, diagnosticand prognosticbiomarkers, as well as molecular targets. Nevertheless, further studies would be needed to confirm the obtained results. |
