Developmental genes and cancer: role of patched in basal cell carcinoma of the skin.

Journal of the National Cancer Institute - 6 Aug 1997

Gailani M R, Bale A E

Abstract excerpt

Many genes originally identified because of their role in embryonic development are also important in postnatal control of cell growth and differentiation. Mutations in some of these genes have been shown to cause cancer. Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) of the skin is the most common cancer in humans....
