Next, we further analyzed SLC39A10 expression in different histologic types of gastric cancer using the TCGA database and found that its expression was higher in cancerous tissues than in noncancerous tissues in most diffuse- and intestinal-type gastric adenocarcinomas, except for some types that were not analyzed due to a lack of control subjects (Supplementary Fig. 1). This evidence concerns the gene SLC39A10 and gastric adenocarcinoma.
