Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: There is a CA dinucleotide repeat polymorphism in the first intron of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene. Our aim was to examine the relationship between the CA repeat length in lung carcinoma and EGFR mutation, EGFR gene copy number, and EGFR protein expression level in the carcinoma. METHODS: We examined 168 lung carcinomas for the length of the CA repeat polymorphism by...
