## Background: Synovial sarcoma is a malignant mesenchymal tumor composed of varying proportions of spindle and epithelial cell components. because of the histologic and immunohistochemical similarity of synovial sarcoma to epithelial carcinomas, we hypothesized that the human epithelial growth fac

## Abstract The c‐__erb__ B‐2/__neu__ gene encodes a cell‐surface glycoprotein with extensive homology to, but distinct from, the epidermal growth‐factor receptor. In this study, we compared the c‐__erb__ B‐2/__neu__ gene amplification and expression of tissue specimens obtained from the bladders o
Expression of oncogenes in gastric cancer tissue was evaluated with immunohistochemical staining methods using monoclonal antibodies to products of the oncogenes. Rates of expression in gastric cancer tissue were 50% for c-myc, 72% for c-erb B,, and 56% for c-Ha-rus oncogenes. Expression of these on
Atypical lipomatous tumours (ALTs) represent a distinctive subset of mesenchymal neoplasms featuring mature adipocytic differentiation. Most ALTs are characterized cytogenetically by the presence of supernumerary ring and/or long marker chromosomes derived from the chromosomal region 12q13-15. The 1
## Abstract Both amplification and overexpression of c‐__erb__ B‐2/__neu__ have been associated with the progression and possible prognosis of a number of human cancers. In this study, we demonstrated that c‐__erb__ B‐2/__neu__ may also play an important role in human prostate cancer. Our conclusio
