The 161 CAFG probes with the highest expression amounts (signal intensity/GAPDHx100 = 40 or beyond in NCC210, S1 Table, red letters) included 115 SYMBOL genes (including SPARC), among which the top 76 genes according to expression amounts were finally selected for prognostic analysis using the public database of 232 colon cancer patients (GSE17538) [21]. The gene discussed is SPARC; the disease is malignant colon neoplasm.
