Furthermore, the decreased mRNA expression of GATA1 and the increased mRNA expression of GATA2 in lung adenocarcinoma patients, and the decreased levels of GATA5 and the increased levels of GATA6 in both lung adenocarcinoma and squamous cell lung carcinoma patients were significantly related to longer FP. The gene discussed is GATA5; the disease is squamous cell lung carcinoma.
