Comprehensive analysis of the pituitary tumor-transforming gene (PTTG) family in lung adenocarcinoma: diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic implications.

Objectives: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a prevalent form of non-small cell lung cancer with high morbidity and mortality rates. Identifying molecular markers and therapeutic targets is crucial for improving LUAD diagnosis and treatment. Pituitary tumor-transforming gene (PTTG) family members, PTTG1, PTTG2, and PTTG3P, have been linked to several malignancies; however, it is unclear how these genes relate to LUAD.
