Finally, although the expression of BCAS1 has been associated with prognosis in different cancers, including prostate [11], pancreatic [12], colorectal [13] and gastric cancer [14], more studies are needed to fully understand how BCAS1 expression affects the function of neoplastic cells in diffuse gliomas, including its role in tumorigenesis. The gene discussed is BCAS1; the disease is cancer.
