Mutation and expression analyses of the MET and CDKN2A genes in rhabdomyosarcoma with emphasis on MET overexpression
22 Jan 2007
Abstract excerpt
Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is the most common soft-tissue sarcoma of childhood. The simultaneous loss of Ink4a/Arf function and disruption of Met signaling in Ink4a/Arf-/- mice transgenic for hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF) induces RMS with extremely high penetrance and short latency. To address the roles of MET and CDKN2A (p16INK4A/p14ARF) in human RMS, we performed mutational analyses in 39 samples...
