Standard discriminant analysis of this study demonstrated that many of the prostate lineage markers genes were important predictors for prostate adenocarcinomas i.e. NKX3-1, KLK3, ACPP, SLC45A3 and FOLH1, corresponding to NKX3.1, PSA, PSAP, P501S, and PSMA respectively. Here, KLK3 is linked to prostate adenocarcinoma.
