HM13 and lung carcinoma: Using the previously established quantitative chromogenic imprinted gene in situ hybridization (QCIGISH) method, elevated aberrant allelic expression of imprinted genes GNAS, GRB10, SNRPN and HM13 was observed in lung cancers over benign lesions and normal controls, which were pathologically confirmed among histologically stained normal, paracancerous and malignant tissue sections.
