INS and prostate neoplasm: We aimed to further characterize expression of insulin pathway genes in localized prostate cancers in an effort to (1) provide insights into potential mechanisms of progression to metastatic disease and (2) try to further enrich for those prostate tumors that portend worse survival outcomes.<h4>Methods</h4>Using the multi-institutional Oncology Research Information Exchange Network (ORIEN) database, gene expression data was analyzed from localized prostate cancer tumors.
