Furthermore, we investigated TAZ expression in cell blocks of human lung carcinoma cell lines, representing the most frequent lung carcinoma entities, including four SCC cell lines (H226, HCC15, HCC95, H1703), four ADC cell lines (H1975, PC9, H441, A549) and four SCLC cell lines (GLC8, GLC1, N417, DMS114). This evidence concerns the gene WWTR1 and lung carcinoma.
