Cell-Autonomous and Non–Cell-Autonomous Mechanisms of Transformation by Amplified <i>FGFR1</i> in Lung Cancer
3 Dec 2013
Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: The 8p12 locus (containing the FGFR1 tyrosine kinase gene) is frequently amplified in squamous cell lung cancer. However, it is currently unknown which of the 8p12-amplified tumors are also sensitive to fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) inhibition. We found that, in contrast with other recurrent amplifications, the 8p12 region included multiple centers of amplification, suggesting marked...
