The observation from this work which indicates that the expression of genes encoding for microfilaments and intermediate filaments or associated proteins (MYH11, ACTG2, KRT15, NEFH, DES, CNN1, and PCP4) are the most extensively down-regulated in prostate cancer metastasis from all sites suggests fundamental reorganization of their cytoskeleton. The gene discussed is NEFH; the disease is prostate carcinoma.
