Furthermore, a higher mutational rate was found from EGFR, TP53, PTEN, TET2, APC, CDKN2A, GNAQ, NOTCH1, FLT3, VHL, BRCA2, PTCH1, CBL, MLH1, BRAF, NRAS, TSC2, CSF1R, KIT, MAP2K1, MSH2, TSC1, HRAS, IFITM1 and BCL9 genes in NM with lung cancer, when compared to lung cancer patients without NM. This evidence concerns the gene TET2 and lung carcinoma.
