PTEN expression and risk for progressive disease in low-risk patients

A new paper by Cuzick and colleagues has suggested that loss of expression of the PTEN gene, which encodes for a protein known as phosphatase and tensin homologue (PTEN), may be significantly associated with heightened risk of progressive disease in a cohort of nominally low-risk patients. Cuzick et al. carried out a laboratory study of […]Image may be NSFW.
