Abstract excerpt
Fifty-three non-small cell lung carcinomas (NSCLC), previously investigated for p53 abnormalities, were studied to evaluate the status of the mdm2 gene by Southern and Northern blot analysis and expression of the mdm2 protein by immunohistochemistry with specific monoclonal antibodies. Amplificat...
