Abstract excerpt
The overexpression of c-myc frequently accompanies the relapse of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) cells and contributes to the poor prognosis of this tumor. In this study, we confirm that transfected c-myc results in decreased homotypic cell aggregation and increased proliferative capacity of SCLC cells when nutrient conditions are adequate. We also find that c-myc contributes to apoptosis when cells are nutrient...
