DNA isolated from blood or bone-marrow samples from 18 patients with acute non-lymphocytic leukemia (ANLL) and 14 patients with acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) was analyzed for the presence of mutations in the N-ras gene. Using synthetic oligonucleotide probes we detected mutations in 5 cases of AN

## Abstract RET and NTRK1 are receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) proteins which play a role in the development and maturation of specific component of the nervous system. Their alterations have been associated to several human diseases, including some forms of cancer and developmental abnormalities. Th
The expression of the protein products and mRNA of c-fos, c-myc, p53, and c-rafwas examined in normal renal tissues and biopsy specimens from 73 patients with various glomerular diseases. Immunofluorescent staining showed that there were cell nuclei stained for C-FOS, c-Myc, and p53, and cytoplasm p
The patterns of RET proto-oncogene expression in mouse, rat, and chicken and the anomalies observed in targeted RET mutants suggest that RET plays a major role in development of mouse enteric nervous system and in kidney organogenesis. Here, we report on in situ hybridization studies describing the
In a recent paper, we described the expression pattern of proto-oncogenes in primary human renal cell carcinoma [12]. To test the possibility of using xenografts as a useful alternative for such studies, we analyzed xenografts of a number of human renal cell carcinomas in nu/nu mice. Xenografts incl
