Abstract excerpt
We performed a genetic and epigenetic study of the hMLH1 and hMSH2 mismatch repair genes in resected primary tumors from 77 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. The molecular alterations examined included the loss of mRNA and protein expression as well as promoter methylation, and the all...
