We also analyzed the transcriptomics datasets from TCGA primary tumor samples (10,496 cases in total) and GTEX normal tissue samples (7,792 cases in total) from UCSD Xena, and found that the expression level of galectin-3 was correlated with that of HK2 and PKM in all data (Fig. 7d). This evidence concerns the gene LGALS3 and neoplasm.
