Background: The global morbidity of cancer is rising rapidly. Despite advances in molecular biology, immunology, and cytotoxic and immune-anticancer therapies, cancer remains a major cause of death worldwide. Protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 12 (PTPN12) is a new member of the cytoplasmic protein tyrosine phosphatase family, isolated from a cDNA library of adult colon tissue.

Therefore, this study aimed to explore potential gene targets for the diagnosis and treatment of PCRC via bioinformatic technology.
Methods: Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) was used to download the data used in this study.
Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, which mainly consist of atherosclerosis (AS), are major causes of death. A great deal of research has been carried out to clarify the molecular mechanisms of AS. However, the etiology of AS remains poorly understood.

Many patients with morphine tolerance have poor efficacy in the treatment of primary pain, and are accompanied by the side effects. Previous studies have found that many mechanisms are involved in morphine tolerance, but few researches could fully explain morphine tolerance, and no effective treatment for morphine tolerance has been found.
