Abstract excerpt
Although chromosome 3p regions are the most frequent site for genetic alterations in small-cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) and non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), the extent of such abnormality in carcinoid tumors remained to be investigated. Moreover, the histogenetic and biological implications of these findings in non-carcinoid lung tumors remain unclear. We studied eight microsatellite loci on chromosome 3p...
