At least seven (marked in red in Table 4) of these 15 proteins have previously been shown to have differential expression in salivary gland tumors: annexin A1 (ANXA1), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), fibrinogen beta chain (FBG), heat shock protein beta-1 (HSPB1), immunoglobulin gamma-1 chain C region (IGHG1), BPI fold-containing family A member 2 (BPIFA2), and vimentin (VIM). The gene discussed is BPIFA2; the disease is tumor of salivary gland.
