However, c-myc mRNA expression in NK cells from patients with lung cancer (−619 ± 724) and gastric cancer (430 ± 285) was significantly decreased compared with c-myc expression in NK cells from healthy donors (2004 ± 394) (** p < 0.002 and ** p < 0.004, respectively, Figure 1B–D). Here, MYC is linked to gastric cancer.
