Gene	Median relative transcript levels			Median fold expressions
	Tu	Tf	BPH	Tu vs Tf_[median]	Tu vs BPH_[median]
	(n = 50)	(n = 50)	(n = 30)
AMACR	2093.38	108.14	57.12	+19.36**	+36.65**
EZH2	0.93	0.58	0.31	+1.61**	+3.02**

Depicted are the median relative transcript levels of the PCa-associated genes (normalized to TBP) in Tu, matched Tf and BPH tissue samples as well as the median fold expressions of the Tu samples compared to the indicated control group. P values were calculated by the Mann–Whitney U test with a two-sided 95% confidence interval (**p < 0.01).
