We found that 27 out of the 34 genes are differentially expressed (Fig. 3a) between tumor and normal tissue, including VEGFA and IL7R, and being CTCFL, KLK5, and ITGB6 the most upregulated and TGFBR3 the top downregulated genes (Supplementary Fig. 4a). This evidence concerns the gene IL7R and neoplasm.
