NAV3 and lung carcinoma: We have previously shown that chromosome 12q21 aberrations, specifically allelic loss of the neuron navigator 3 (NAV3) gene, are associated with several subtypes of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL; Karenko et al, 2005; Hahtola et al, 2008a), CTCL-associated lung cancers (Hahtola et al, 2008b), and ca. 25% of cutaneous basal and squamous cell cancers (Maliniemi et al, 2011).
