Abstract excerpt
KIT and PDGFRA in small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) have been rarely examined in Japanese. The author investigated protein expression of KIT and PDGFRA in 54 Japanese cases of small cell lung carcinoma by immunohistochemistry, and gene mutations of KIT and PDGFRA in 20 Japanese cases of small cell lung carcinoma by the PCR-direct sequencing method. The molecular genetic analysis showed no mutations of KIT (exons...
