Interestingly, by comparison with healthy tissues, elevated CENP-A expression levels are documented in many cancer types in humans, including breast (Ma et al., 2003; McGovern et al., 2012), colon (Tomonaga et al., 2003), liver (Li et al., 2011), lung (Wu et al., 2012), ovarian (Qiu et al., 2013), bone (Gu et al., 2014), gastric (Xu et al., 2020), and prostate (Saha et al., 2020). This evidence concerns the gene CENPA and cancer.
