Finally, there were 10 target genes that had a differential relative mRNA expression (difference in ΔΔCt > 2) comparing patients with early and locally advanced stages of NSCLC were compared (ASPM, BIRC5, TOP2A, TK1, ORC6L, DLGAP5, KIAA0101, PRC1, CEP55, and DTL) (Figure 2). Here, TOP2A is linked to non-small cell lung carcinoma.
