title: [Expression and significance of MAGE genes in human lung cancer].
abstract: Lung cancer is one of the common malignancies with an extremely poor prognosis, because of the current diagnostic techniques are not easy to find micrometastases. Melanoma associated antigens genes (MAGE) are tumor specific antigen genes, closely related to the occurrence, development and prognosis of lung cancer. The research of MAGE genes provide a new direction for the diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer.
