Alterations of the K-ras and p53 genes in Tamoxifen-associated endometrial carcinoma.

abstract：:Neuroblastoma is an aggressive childhood disease. Even with intensive conventional treatments, the long term survival rate for children with neuroblastoma remains less than 40%, highlighting the importance of finding new therapies. Bcl-2 family proteins play crucial roles in survival, proliferation and chemotherapeuti...
