We genotyped rs10987746 in genomic DNA and interrogated gene expression levels of ENG and PTPN14 in 111 paired samples of human primary pulmonary adenocarcinomas and matched uninvolved lung tissue from the same individual collected from lung cancer patients who had undergone debulking surgery for their cancer (Kim et al., 2013). This evidence concerns the gene PTPN14 and lung carcinoma.
