Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: A novel link between oncogenic KRAS signalling and WT1 was recently identified. We sought to investigate the role of WT1 and KRAS in proliferation and apoptosis. METHODS: KRAS mutations and WT1 (cMyc) expression were detected using Sanger sequencing and real-time PCR in 77 patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Overexpression and knockdown of WT1 were generated with plasmid and siRNA via...
