Adenocarcinomas (AC), squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) and adenosquamous carcinomas (ASC) are three histological subtypes of non-small-cell lung carcinomas (NSCLC). ASC are morphologically mixed tumours that contain the two cell components AC and SCC. To understand if they are a "simple" mix of AC and SCC or if they present molecular specificities, as compared with the molecular characterization of both components, we performed a comparative transcriptome analysis on a series of nine ASC, five AC and five SCC induced in rats by radon exposure. We found that 72, 40 and 39 genes were differentially expressed when comparing AC_SCC, ASC_SCC and AC_ASC, respectively. Moreover, when classifying the three histological subtypes, using genes that discriminated AC and SCC, we observed that all ASC were classified as intermediate between the AC and SCC, some being closer to AC, others to SCC. These results indicated that, regarding gene expression, ASC could be considered as a mix of AC and SCC, both in various proportions. However, they also exhibit molecular specificities since we found specific genes discriminating ASC_SCC and AC_ASC. In conclusion, the ASC mixed lung tumours are more complex than simple mixes of AC and SCC components. Neuroendocrine differentiation and ERK proliferation pathways seemed preferentially deregulated in ASC compared to AC and SCC respectively, pathways that are worthy of being explored because they could partially explain the high clinical aggressiveness of ASC.
