Abstract excerpt
Pulmonary adenoma susceptibility 1 (Pas1) is a major locus affecting inherited predisposition to the development of lung adenocarcinoma in mice, and is mapped to chromosome 6q near the Kras2 gene. However, it is still unclear whether the PAS1 locus on human chromosome 12p11.2-p12.1, the region showing synteny to the mouse Pas1 region, is involved in susceptibility to human lung adenocarcinoma development. Thus,...
