Docetaxel (DOC), a member of the taxane family of anticancer drugs, binds to tubulin and produces unnaturally stable microtubules that induce cell death. DOC is used clinically alone or in combination with other compounds to treat advanced stages of cancer. We have treated the human lung cancer cell
## Background and Objectives: The tumor suppressor oncogene p53 abnormalities have been closely associated with resistance or sensitivity of cancer cells to some chemotherapeutic agents. We examined the association between p53 protein status in nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and in vitro chemos
## Abstract Our previous study showed a characteristic p53 mutational spectrum in lung tumors from lung cancer patients in the Western Pennsylvania region. To further understand the involvement of p53 mutations in lung tumor development, in this study we compared p53 mutational spectra and distribu
