Identification of key candidate tumor biomarkers in non-small-cell lung cancer by in silico analysis.

ABSTRACT: Lung cancer is a common malignancy worldwide. The aim of the present study was to investigate differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and normal lung tissue, and to reveal the potential molecular mechanism underlying NSCLC. The Gene Expression Omnibus database was used to obtain three gene expression profiles (GSE18842, GSE30219 and GSE33532). DEGs were obtained by GEO2R. Gene Ontology and pathway enrichment analyses were performed for DEGs in the Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery. A protein-protein interaction (PPI) network of DEGs was constructed and analyzed using the Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes/Proteins database and Cytoscape software. A survival analysis was performed and protein expression l
