BAX and p16INK4Aare independent positive prognostic markers for advanced tumour stage of nonsmall cell lung cancer
1 Jan 2002
Abstract excerpt
Clinical studies suggest prognostic relevance of p16INK4A in nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) while conflicting results for p53 have been published. However, the importance of the apoptosis regulating gene BAX, a downstream regulator of p53, on the prognosis of NSCLC is unknown. The present study investigated the prognostic relevance of BAX with respect to the status of p53 and P16INK4A in 61 patients with...
