MICA and non-small cell lung carcinoma: A second dataset describing gene expression in NSCLC tissue and adjacent healthy lung tissue (GEO: GSE19804) also showed a significantly higher expression of MIC-A (GenBank NM_000247) in healthy lung tissue compared to tumor tissue (MIC-A control 8.19 ± 0.05, MIC-A NSCLC 8.00 ± 0.06 [p = 0.0166]).
