Expression of Inhibitor-of-Apoptosis Protein (IAP) Livin by Neuroblastoma Cells: Correlation with Prognostic Factors and Outcome
1 Nov 2005
Abstract excerpt
Livin is a recently identified member of the Inhibitor-of-Apoptosis protein (IAP) family of antiapoptosis proteins, and expression has been reported in melanoma and some types of carcinoma. We evaluated livin expression in paraffin-embedded tumor tissue from 68 patients with neuroblastoma (NB) and 7 NB cell lines by immunoperoxidase using an anti-livin monoclonal antibody. Eighteen (26.5%) of the 68 NB tumor...
