TMPRSS2-ERG -specific transcriptional modulation is associated with prostate cancer biomarkers and TGF-β signaling
1 Dec 2011
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: TMPRSS2-ERG gene fusions occur in about 50% of all prostate cancer cases and represent promising markers for molecular subtyping. Although TMPRSS2-ERG fusion seems to be a critical event in prostate cancer, the precise functional role in cancer development and progression is still unclear. METHODS: We studied large-scale gene expression profiles in 47 prostate tumor tissue samples and in 48 normal...
