The strong expression correlation between GAU1 and GALNT8 was further validated in our 66 pairs of clinical samples (P < 10−4, Figure 3(a)), with a significant upregulation of GALNT8 expression in the tumor tissues (T) compared with the adjacent nontumorous tissues (N) (P < 10−4, Figure 3(b)). The gene discussed is GAU1; the disease is neoplasm.
