We initially examined the TCGA database and observed that expression of the orphan nuclear receptor NURR1 was more highly expressed in pancreatic tumors compared with the normal pancreas and patients with pancreatic cancer expressing high levels of NURR1 exhibited decreased survival (Fig. 1) and this was similar to our recent studies on the expression and prognostic value of NURR1 in glioblastoma (15). The gene discussed is NR4A2; the disease is glioblastoma.
