  1. The regulation of the 10 selected deregulated custom probe sets was analysed by quantitative RT-PCR in 10 non small cell lung carcinoma – normal sample pairs (patients numbered from 1 to 10). SRSF2 protein expression levels in biopsy samples were analysed by immunohistochemistry in a previous study. A score (0–300) was established for SRSF2 and phosphorylated SRSF2 (P-SRSF2). Patients with scores ≥ 150 and > 175 were those over-expressing SRSF2 and P-SRSF2 proteins respectively, as compared to normal lung tissues. Patients in bold characters over-expressed both proteins. n/a: not available.
  2. Relative mRNA levels were normalised to that of beta-2-microglobulin or a fold-change was calculated comparing to a reference event. The cut-off value was equal to 1.40. n/a: not available. Patients in bold characters over-expressed both SRSF2 and phospho-SRSF2 proteins (see Table 4A).
