Abstract excerpt
The putative tumor suppressor gene DCC has been shown to be frequently lost or expressed at low levels in colorectal, gastric, pancreatic, and esophageal carcinomas. In the present study, the DCC gene and its mRNA expression in human and rat prostatic carcinoma cells as well as in prostatic carci...
