PDCD6 and neoplasm: In the future, we will continue this work from clinic to confirm its prognostic utility as well as from lab experiment to elucidate its molecular mechanism, finding or assembling another clinical study to measure PDCD6 expression in ovarian tumors and to analyze its association with disease progression and overall survival, performing chip assay to identify upstream modulators of PDCD6 as well as its downstream targets or pathways being involved in the PDCD6's effect on tumor progression.
