Abstract excerpt
Gene alterations in the ret proto-oncogene, which encodes a receptor tyrosine kinase, have been found to associate with several human diseases. In this study, we showed that induction of the vgf promoter activity is a good molecular indicator for RET activation in PC12 cells, a rat pheochromocytoma cell line. We demonstrated that all forms of RET oncoprotein, including RET chimeric oncoproteins found in human...
