Notably, the staining score of LGALS8, LGALS10 and LGALS13 in ovarian cancer tissues were 3.04±1.24, 1.26± 0.65 and 1.52 ± 0.58, respectively, which were all lower than those in normal ovarian tissues (9.04±0.84, 7.24±1.69, 8.67±0.78) (all P<0.05). The gene discussed is CLC; the disease is ovarian cancer.
