Abstract:
K-ras gene is one of oncogenes in non-small cell lung cancer,and it can promote tumor cells growth after mutations by several signaling pathways.K-ras mutations frequently occur in lung adenocarcinoma patients with smoking history.In the present study,K-ras mutations are associated with resistence to targated therapy and may be a marker of poor prognosis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
