study concludes polymorphisms of TGM5, PPAP2B and PSMA4 are not major contributors tonon-small cell lung cancer susceptibility in never-smoking hinese population, this primarily can be attributed to the significantly distinct genetic background of Asian populations from western populations

29724718 (PLPP3)

ENPP2 was in silico discovered to be genetically altered in some patients with lung cancer, whereas increased autotaxin (ATX) staining and activity were detected in patients and mouse models, accompanied by a downregulation of PLPP3 expression. Most importantly, genetic deletion of Enpp2 or Lpar1 in mice resulted in disease attenuation, thus confirming a pro-carcinogenic role of ATX/LPA in the lung.
