## Abstract Aberrant promoter hypermethylation of several known or putative tumor suppressor genes occurs frequently during the etiopathogenesis of lung cancer and is a promising tool for cancer detection. In the present study, promoter hypermethylation of __p16^INK4A^__ and __CDH13__ genes was inv

## Abstract Laboratoryβbased studies showed that host immune genes could influence the prognosis of nonβsmallβcell lung cancer (NSCLC). Therefore, genetic polymorphisms in host immune genes may serve as predictors for NSCLC clinical outcome. To test the hypothesis that functional single nucleotide
The p p ! 6INK4 and p I8 genes are members of the gene famil coding for inhibitors of cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6. frequently deleted in many human neoplasms. To examine the role of these 3 genes in lung carcinogenesis, somatic mutations within the genes were analyzed by single-strand conformat
In order to clarify the frequency of p16 gene inactivation and its relationship with Rb expression, immunohistochemical analysis of p16 and Rb proteins was carried out on 82 paraffin-embedded sections of primary non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLCs). From immunohistochemical results, abnormal p16 exp
