MAGE‐A9 mRNA and protein expression in bladder cancer
8 Feb 2007
Abstract excerpt
In a previous analysis, we showed that MAGE-As were the most frequently expressed cancer-testis antigens in human bladder tumours. Here, we further characterized by RT-PCR the expression of this family of genes by analyzing specifically MAGE-A3, -A4, -A8 and -A9 mRNAs in 46 bladder tumours and 10 normal urothelia. We found that they were expressed in 30, 33, 56 and 54% of tumours, respectively. Although MAGE-A8...
