Description
ASCL1 and RET mRNA levels were examined in lung cancer samples. High expression of RET (RET-high) correlated with shorter overall survival compared to the RET-low group in patients with ASCL1 expression in stage I (P=0.007) and all adenocarcinoma (P=0.037). However, expression of RET did not affect survival in the ASCL1- tumors.
