We found that log-transformed PTEN RNAscope values (Supplementary Figure S6B), PTEN IHC and SLC9A3R1 IHC scores all correlated in human CRC (PTEN RNA vs PTEN IHC, r = 0.33; p < 0.01; PTEN RNA vs SLC9A3R1 apical intensity r = 0.36; p < 0.01; PTEN IHC vs SLC9A3R1 apical intensity r = 0.28; p < 0.01 Figure 6B). This evidence concerns the gene PTEN and colorectal carcinoma.
