EEF1A2 and adenocarcinoma: In contrast to a previous study reporting overexpression of EEF1A2 in gastric cancer [34], we observed that EEF1A2 mRNA levels were significantly downregulated in a total of four analyses in Cho’s dataset and two analyses in D’Errico’s dataset, spanning across intestinal type, diffuse type and mixed type adenocarcinoma (S7 Table).
