Interestingly, PHF14 expression was found to be strongly elevated in ca 80% (35/44) of NSCLC tissues with an average increase of 3-fold (Figure 1A and Supplementary Figure 1), while no obvious alterations of PHF14 expression in tumor tissues from hepatocellular carcinoma, colorectal carcinoma and renal cell carcinoma were observed (data not shown). The gene discussed is PHF14; the disease is non-small cell lung carcinoma.
