Higher levels of GLO1 were evident in the T3/T4 groups where the serosal surface of the gastric wall was invaded by cancer, compared to that in T1/T2 groups where no invasion was evident (P = 0.015 for qRT- PCR and P = 0.001 for IHC; Fig. 2A; Tables 1 and 2). The gene discussed is GLO1; the disease is cancer.
