Application Comment Organism
medicine TMPRSS2-ERG is the most common gene fusion in prostate cancer. 74% (117/158) of the prostate adenocarcinomas analyzed were positive for the TMPRSS2-ERG and/or telomerase TERT expression. Significantly higher expression of ERG is detected in TMPRSS2-ERG-positive tumors, whereas more intense expression of SPINK1 is characteristic for the TMPRSS2-ERG negative tumors. The cases negative for both transcripts, TMPRSS2-ERG and TERT, rarely recurr and show significantly longer biochemical recurrence-free period as compared to the TMPRSS2-ERG and/or TERT-positive cases Homo sapiens
