Expression data from hyperthermia- and/or radiation-treated A549 lung cancer cells

Lung cancer is one of the leading incident cancers among the various cancer types that occur in human. About 85% of lung cancer is non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). NSCLC is often diagnosed at the advanced stage and metastasis occurs in most cases, which explains why the overall survival rates for NSCLC are still low. Hyperthermia (HT) is one of the promising therapies in combination with chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and is known to be effective in improving survival and quality of life in patients with advanced lung cancer.
