Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | prostate cancer |
| ICD-0-3 | C61.9 |
| Methods | Northern blot etc. |
| Sample | prostate cancer tissues |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | Differential display code 3 (DD3(PCA3)) is a novel gene with characteristics that indicate its potentially valuable role in early identification of malignancy and in the construction of interventions directed specifically toward malignantly transformed cells. DD3(PCA3) has a messenger RNA product that is highly overexpressed in tumors. Compared with other genetic markers that are associated with prostate tissue, DD3(PCA3) is the most specific marker for malignant disease. |
