Expression of <i>bcl</i>‐2 oncogene protein is prevalent in small cell lung carcinomas

Abstract excerpt

To investigate the frequency of bcl-2 oncogene protein expression in small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC), immunohistochemical staining with a mouse-anti-human monoclonal antibody, bcl-2/124, was carried out on 60 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded SCLC samples obtained from surgical biopsy, and autopsy cases. bcl-2 protein was detected in 54 out of the 60 SCLCs. In 47 cases, more than half of the tumour cells stained...
