We examined 22 cases of renal-cell carcinoma (RCC) for structural alterations of the epidermal growth factor receptor (ECFR) gene and found gene amplification in one case of high-stag+high-grade RCC. Dot blot analysis of the total RNA from tumorous and normal kidney tissues revealed overexpression o

Among the major regulators of the G 1 restriction point are cyclin D1 and the retinoblastoma gene product (RB). In non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the cyclin D1 gene is amplified/over-expressed in almost 50% of cases, and RB is inactivated in 6-32% of cases. It is of interest to evaluate concurr
## Abstract The degree of gene amplification for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and its expression levels were examined in 4 cases of tumor lesions and their cell lines of human squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the oral cavity. The amplification was detected in 1 case (ZA), but not signifi
