Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate mutations of EGFR TK gene in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and the diagnostic value of the mutations assayed by real-time PCR using TaqMan-MGB probes. METHODS: Tyrosine kinase genes of EGFR (exons 18, 19 and 21) were amplified by PCR technology, and sequenced and analyzed by Chromas software in 80 NSCLC patients. Based on the results of sequencing, TaqMan-MGB probes were designed...
