Alterations of insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor gene copy number and protein expression are common in non-small cell lung cancer
12 Aug 2014
Abstract excerpt
AIMS: Insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF1R) is a tyrosine kinase membrane receptor involved in tumourigenesis that may be a potential therapeutic target. We aimed to investigate the incidence and prognostic significance of alterations in IGF1R copy number, and IGF1R protein expression in resected primary non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and lymph node metastases. METHODS: IGF1R gene copy number status...
