<h4>Purpose</h4>TAZ, also known as WWTR1, has recently been suggested as an oncogene in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We investigated the clinical relevance of TAZ expression and its functional role in NSCLC tumorigenesis.<h4>Experimental design</h4>We characterized TAZ at the DNA (n=192), mRNA (n=196), and protein levels (n=345) in an NSCLC patient cohort. Gene expression analysis was complemented by a meta-analysis of public datasets (n=1,382). The effects of TAZ on cell proliferation an ...[more]
