Identification of potential diagnostic and therapeutic target genes for lung squamous cell carcinoma.

The purpose of this study was to identify potential molecular markers of lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC). Three datasets containing LUSC mRNA sequencing data were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus, The Cancer Genome Atlas and the Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis databases. These datasets were used to identify significantly differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in LUSC.
