As shown in Table 1, a significant association was observed between ATDC overexpression and the extent of the primary tumor (T1 versus T2–T4∶42.11% versus 64.79%, p = 0.0227), histological differentiation (well differentiation versus moderate/poor differentiation: 31.43% versus 68.92%, p = 0.0002) and histological types (squamous cell carcinoma versus adenocarcinoma: 97.83% versus 26.98%, p<0.0001). Here, TRIM29 is linked to adenocarcinoma.
