“…Most expression analysis is still done at the protein level via imunohistochemical assays, so discrepancies in the results for the researched genes can be a consequence not just of different NSCLC types or different pathways of tumourigenesis, but also of the different techniques used for gene expression analysis and the different interpretations of the results. We proved that COX-2 and hTERT are already over-expressed at the mRNA level and that higher expression levels are related to NSCLC tumours, as already stated [17,18,27,28]. We also confirmed that COX-2 gene expression was significantly higher in ADC, as was already known [12][13][14][15].…”

“…Downregulation of MDM2 expression has also been found in primary lung tumours, mostly in SCC, and is related to an alternative pathway to NSCLC pathogenesis [27]. MDM2 mRNA expression was determined as a favourable prognostic factor in NSCLC [28]. LATS2 has a role in cell cycle regulation, the maintenance of mitotic fidelity and genomic stability, and the promotion of apoptosis through the downregulation of the anti-apoptotic proteins of the Bcl family [29][30][31][32].…”

“…Most authors have analyzed earlystage, surgically resected tumors where sufficient tissue is available for mutational testing by standard techniques. When TP53 mutations were uncategorized, some studies found no association with outcome (29) or only identified a trend, which was lost in the multivariate analysis (30). Other studies observed an association between TP53 mutations and response to adjuvant therapy (31) or with shorter OS, either alone (32; only in stage I disease) or in combination with other molecular markers (33).…”

“…Nondisruptive mutations could be more frequent in smokers whose tumors develop a high genetic instability (29) and other, as yet unknown, genetic alterations may be responsible for the worse outcomes. This would make our findings spurious, positioning nondisruptive TP53 mutations as a bystander of those alterations.…”

“…Molecules with frequent activating alterations in lung cancers are marked in red. Molecules showing frequent and infrequent inactivations are indicated in dark and light blue, respectively association with a favorable prognosis (Higashiyama et al, 1997;Ko et al, 2000). p14ARF, which is encoded by an alternative coding frame of the p16INK4A locus, exerts growth inhibition by inhibiting the ubiquitin E3 ligase activity of MDM2 (Honda and Yasuda, 1999) and by sequestering MDM2 into the nucleolus (Weber et al, 1999;Zhang and Xiong, 1999).…”
