Gynecologic cancers including cancers of the endometrium are a clinical problem (1-4). We mined published microarray data (5, 6) to discover genes associated with endometrial cancers by comparing transcriptomes of the normal endometrium and endometrial tumors from humans. We identified keratin 8, encoded by KRT8, as among the most differentially expressed genes, transcriptome-wide, in cancers of the endometrium. KRT8 was expressed at significantly higher levels in endometrial tumor tissues as compared to the endometrium. Importantly, primary tumor expression of KRT8 was correlated with recurrence-free survival in patients with endometrial cancer. KRT8 may be a molecule of interest in understanding the etiology or progression of human endometrial cancer.

Gynecologic cancers including cancers of the endometrium are a clinical problem (1-4). We mined published microarray data (5, 6) to discover genes associated with endometrial cancers by comparing transcriptomes of the normal endometrium and endometrial tumors from humans. We identified cytoskeleton associated protein 2, encoded by CKAP2, as among the most differentially expressed genes, transcriptome-wide, in cancers of the endometrium. CKAP2 was expressed at significantly higher levels in endometrial tumor tissues as compared to the endometrium. Importantly, in human endometrial cancer, primary tumor expression of CKAP2 was correlated with recurrence-free survival in white patients with high and low mutational burden. CKAP2 may be a molecule of interest in understanding the etiology or progression of human endometrial cancer.

Gynecologic cancers including cancers of the endometrium are a clinical problem (1-4). We mined published microarray data (5, 6) to discover genes associated with endometrial cancers by comparing transcriptomes of the normal endometrium and endometrial tumors from humans. We identified KIAA0101, also known as the PCNA clamp-associated factor (PCLAF) as among the most differentially expressed genes, transcriptome-wide, in cancers of the endometrium. KIAA0101 was expressed at significantly higher levels in endometrial tumor tissues as compared to the endometrium. Importantly, primary tumor expression of KIAA0101 was correlated with recurrence-free survival in patients with endometrial cancer. KIAA0101 may be a molecule of interest in understanding the etiology or progression of human endometrial cancer.

Gynecologic cancers including cancers of the endometrium are a clinical problem (1-4). We mined published microarray data (5, 6) to discover genes associated with endometrial cancers by comparing transcriptomes of the normal endometrium and endometrial tumors from humans. We identified nucleolar and spindle associated protein 1, encoded by NUSAP1, as among the most differentially expressed genes, transcriptome-wide, in cancers of the endometrium. NUSAP1 was expressed at significantly higher levels in endometrial tumor tissues as compared to the endometrium. Importantly, primary tumor expression of NUSAP1 was correlated with recurrence-free survival in patients with endometrial cancer. NUSAP1 may be a molecule of interest in understanding the etiology or progression of human endometrial cancer.

Gynecologic cancers including cancers of the endometrium are a clinical problem (1-4). We mined published microarray data (5, 6) to discover genes associated with endometrial cancers by comparing transcriptomes of the normal endometrium and endometrial tumors from humans. We identified ISG15 ubiquitin-like modifier, encoded by ISG15, as among the most differentially expressed genes, transcriptome-wide, in cancers of the endometrium. ISG15 was expressed at significantly higher levels in endometrial tumor tissues as compared to the endometrium. Importantly, primary tumor expression of ISG15 was correlated with recurrence-free survival in patients with endometrial cancer.

Gynecologic cancers including cancers of the endometrium are a clinical problem (1-4). We mined published microarray data (5, 6) to discover genes associated with endometrial cancers by comparing transcriptomes of the normal endometrium and endometrial tumors from humans. We identified non-SMC condensin I complex subunit G, encoded by NCAPG, as among the most differentially expressed genes, transcriptome-wide, in cancers of the endometrium. NCAPG was expressed at significantly higher levels in endometrial tumor tissues as compared to the endometrium. Importantly, in human endometrial cancer, primary tumor expression of NCAPG was correlated with recurrence-free survival in white patients with low mutational burden. NCAPG may be a molecule of interest in understanding the etiology or progression of human endometrial cancer.
