Genes indicated have been shown to be involved in prostate tumour onset or progression or to have altered expression in prostate tumours [3441], except NSMCE2, shown to alter growth rates of breast cancer cells [42], MYEOV, shown to be overamplified in breast and oesophageal carcinomas [43], and CASC17, a long nonprotein coding RNA gene.
