Berois et al. (2006) found that GALNT13 was the most highly expressed gene indicated by microarray gene expression analysis performed using a metastatic xenograft-derived cell model of human neuroblastoma, with a 12-fold upregulation in metastatic malignant neuroblasts compared to the primary cancer xenograft, suggesting that the GALNT13 expression level could be potentially used to detect malignant neuroblasts at diagnosis or recurrence. Here, GALNT13 is linked to cancer.
