Mutation and Expression Analysis of PTEN in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer From Non-smokers
Abstract
This MMedSc dissertation studied the genetic variations and epigenetic variations of PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10) in relation to Adenocarcinoma (AD) in particular the protein expression level of PTEN in non-smoking non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patient.
