Abstract excerpt
One of the most frequent malignancies in humans is lung adenocarcinoma.To develop novel diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for the management of this disease, animal models are required. We have used transgenic mice with lung-targeted expression of the CRaf kinase to evaluate genes altered frequently in human lung adenocarcinoma for their effect on tumor progression. Here we report that loss of p53...
