Notably, FUT11 (Zodro et al., 2014), BGLAP (Yajima et al., 1989), SSR2 (Abdel-Hamid et al., 2014), TGFBR1 (Li et al., 2018; Tan et al., 2018), BSG (Tsai et al., 2007), and FUCA1 (Terraneo et al., 2013) have been reported to be associated with related cancer, but no studies showed the functions of other eight DESPGs in corresponding cancers. The gene discussed is SSR2; the disease is cancer.
