Correlation studies (i.e. PGC) using expO data of CRC samples revealed a strong positive correlation of FOXQ1 expression with direct Wnt targets (AXIN2, APCDD1), epithelial marker (CDH1), intestinal stem cell marker (LGR5) and proliferation-related genes (MKI69, TPX2, AURKA), yet a negative correlation was observed with EMT-markers (VIM, SNAI2, ZEB2, CDH2) (Table S2). This evidence concerns the gene FOXQ1 and colorectal carcinoma.
