Abstract excerpt
Multiple genetic alterations, including inactivation of the p53 and RB genes and loss of heterozygosity on chromosome 3p, occur commonly in small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC). To assess the biological significance of p53 inactivation in the development of SCLC, tetracycline (Tc)-inducible p53 expression plasmids were introduced into a SCLC cell line, N417, in which the p53 gene as well as the RB gene was...
