Recent studies have reported that the subtypes of small cell lung cancer contained atonal bHLH transcription factor 1 (ATOH1), pOU class 2 homeobox 3 (POU2F3), neurogenic differentiation factor 1 (NEUROD1), and achaete–scute complex homolog-like (ASCL1) [114,115]. This evidence concerns the gene POU2F3 and small cell lung carcinoma.
