We evaluated changes in theexpression of genes involved in a range of key processes and characteristics,including cell adhesion (FSP1, CD34, PECAM1, CDH5, VWF, MCAM, CDH1, and EPCAM), cell proliferation (CDKN1A), stemness (SOX2), and reported PCa progression markers (FGFR1, EZH2, VEGFA, IL8, and NRP1). This evidence concerns the gene EPCAM and posterior cortical atrophy.
