- Study Identifies Novel Gene Alterations in Lung Cancer, November 4, 2007 News Release - National Institutes of Health (NIH): The TSP researchers uncovered a total of 57 genomic changes that occur frequently in lung cancer patients. Of these changes, more than 40 appear to be associated with genes not previously known to be involved in lung adenocarcinoma . More research is needed to precisely identify and characterize these genes, but researchers are excited by the possibility that their findings may suggest new ways of attacking this deadly cancer. The most common abnormality identified by the TSP team involves a region on chromosome 14 that encompasses two known genes, neither of which had been previously associated with cancer. Through additional studies in cancer cells, the researchers discovered that one of the genes, NKX2.1, influences cancer cell growth. NKX2.1 normally acts as a master regulator that controls the activity of other key genes in cells lining the lungs? tiny air sacs, called alveoli.

- Researchers ID 26 Genes Associated With Lung Cancer | Online NewsHour | October 23, 2008 | PBS: "The type of genetic mutations the researchers found are called somatic mutations. They are not present at birth and are not inherited or passed on to children, but instead develop over the course of a person's lifetime. Somatic mutations are important because the mutated genes can be targets for anti-cancer therapy"
