We analyzed the expression data for CRC in the TCGA database and we found that the expression of TEX10 was significantly positively correlated with the expression of TNFAPI8 (Pearson R = 0.402, P = 6.76e‐12), SAT1 (Pearson R = 0.350, P = 3.53e‐9) and IL6ST (Pearson R = 0.287, P = 1.61e‐6) in 270 patients (Figure 6I). This evidence concerns the gene IL6ST and colorectal carcinoma.
