Validation of Met as a Therapeutic Target in Alveolar and Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma
1 May 2006
Abstract excerpt
Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a highly malignant soft-tissue tumor of childhood deriving from skeletal muscle cells. RMS can be classified in two major histologic subtypes: embryonal (ERMS) and alveolar (ARMS), the latter being characterized by the PAX3/7-FKHR translocation.
