Five cancer types - prostate adenocarcinoma (PRAD), chromophobe renal cell carcinoma (KICH), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), oesophageal carcinoma (ESCA), and adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) – showed a significant decrease in ZNF185 mRNA level respect to the normal tissues from both TCGA and GTEx database (Fig 4A). This evidence concerns the gene ZNF185 and adenoid cystic carcinoma.
