Abstract excerpt
The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between mutation status, copy number, and protein expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in lung adenocarcinoma, and to correlate the genetic status and clinicopathologic features. Forty-nine adenocarcinomas were tested by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for EGFR gene mutations, by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for increased...
