“…22 Other markers that have been examined include chromogranin (Ch) and synaptophysin (SNP), both neuroendocrine markers with unclear prognostic significance. Thyroid transcription factor (TTF-1), a lung cancer tumor marker, 23 and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) 24 are also potentially useful markers with uncertain prognostic significance.…”
Our results suggest that bcl-2 expression is prognostic for improved OS and DSS in NSCLC. Testing for bcl-2 expression in a prospective study will help to determine its clinical relevance in prognostication.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
