## Abstract Apoptosis is the selective physiologic deletion of cells that are no longer required. Over‐expression of the __bcl‐2__ protooncogene extends survival of neurons otherwise destined for apoptosis. The unique capacity of neuroblastoma (NB) to undergo spontaneous regression and the prognost
That carotid body tumours have a genetic aetiology is suggested by the familial occurrence of the neoplasm. Environmental influences are also implied by the fact that the tumour is more common in those living at high altitudes. However, the mechanism of development of sporadic tumours occurring at s
We studied apoptosis in 36 neuroblastomas by DNA ladder assay. Expression of bcl2-cx and [3 mRNA isoforms and protein were detected by RT-PCR and by immunohistochemistry, respectively. Internucleosomal DNA fragmentation was found in 20/36 (56%) tumor tissues collected both at onset and relapse of di
