abstract = {Background: We measured the expression of some commonly used tumor markers with RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) to identify any that might be useful for the evaluation of squamous cell lung cancer and identify possible correlations between these tumor markers and any clinical characteristics.
Methods: RNA-Seq was performed on five pairs of squamous-cell lung cancer and normal tissues and another 39 squamous-cell lung cancer tissues obtained by our department between September and December, 2012. The expression of 13 commonly used tumor markers was determined.
Results: All of the patients in our study were male. The expressions of CA125, CYFRA21-1, NSE and SCC increased in tumor samples and there were statistically significant differences between squamous cell lung cancer and normal tissues (P=0.008, P},
