We then further evaluated the correlation between Augmin family genes expression and the pathological stage of patients and found that the mRNA expression levels of HAUS1, HAUS2, HAUS3, HAUS5, HAUS7 and HAUS8 increased with tumor progression, except for HAUS4 and HAUS6, and there was a link between the expression of Augmin family genes and the stage of the disease (Supplementary Fig. 1B). Here, HAUS2 is linked to neoplasm.
