To further evaluate the association of LMO1 expression with neuroendocrine differentiation in lung cancer cells, we examined the correlation between LMO1 mRNA levels and mRNA levels of neuroendocrine markers, including chromogranin A (CHGA), synaptophysin (SYP) and neuron-specific enolase-2 (ENO2). The gene discussed is CHGA; the disease is lung cancer.
