Sun et al. [16] investigated the Ct-SLCO1B3 mRNA expression in matched pairs of cancerous and normal tissue of 39 colon cancer patients and detected Ct-SLCO1B3 mRNA in 87.2% of those colon cancer tissue samples, but only in 2.6% of the adjacent normal tissue samples. The gene discussed is SLCO1B3; the disease is malignant colon neoplasm.
