Analysis of TCGA data associated with NSCLC showed upregulation of DSG3, PTHLH, RPL36A and SCAND1 expression and downregulation of CRYAB, DCN, HMGCS1, NDUFA4L2, NUDT4 and ZFP36L2 expression, as compared with normal tissues (Figure 6B). The gene discussed is RPL36A; the disease is non-small cell lung carcinoma.
