Furthermore, two transcriptional signatures that are specifically dependent on the EphA2/EphB2 signaling pathways were identified, namely EphA2, miR-423-5p, CREB1, ADAMTS14, and EphB2, miR-31-5p, mir-31-3p, CRK, CXCL12, ARPC5, SRC.EphA2- and EphB2-related signatures were validated for their expression and clinical value in 1663 CRC patients. This evidence concerns the gene ADAMTS14 and colorectal carcinoma.
