Schematic overview of the study. RNA-seq performed on 14 patient tumor and adjacent normal tissues identified gene fusions, point mutations, long non-coding RNAs, and alternatively spliced transcripts. Analysis of the aggregated mutational profiles implicated Ras-PI3K-AKT signaling, androgen signaling, and RB1 cell cycle regulation as major pathways affecting pathogenesis of prostate cancer in this Chinese patient cohort.
