Abstract excerpt
Chromosome 18q is frequently deleted in lung cancers, and a common region of 18q deletions was mapped to chromosome 18q21. Since the DCC candidate tumor suppressor gene has been mapped in this region, mutation and expression of the DCC gene were examined in 46 lung cancer cell lines, consisting of 14 small cell lung carcinomas (SCLCs) and 32 non-small cell lung carcinomas (NSCLCs), to elucidate the pathogenetic...
