PDLIM2 and lung cancer: Consistently, a significant decrease in PDLIM2 expression (<40% of the level in matched normal controls) was found in 28 out of 36 (based on the RNA level) and 51 out of 69 (based on the protein level) of our lung cancer samples directly isolated from patients (Fig. 1b, c, Supplementary Fig. 1d, Supplementary Table 3).
