Abstract:
Objective To investigate the deletion and mutation of Rb gene in human lung cancer.Methods Polymerace chain reaction (PCR ) and restriction enzyme analytic techniques were used to detect the exon 14-16 and 22-23 regions of Rb gene in 20 human lung cancer DNA samples and 3 normal human lung tissue DNA samples.Results Two deletions existed in the exon 14-16 regions of two lung cancer DNA samples.Conclusion Deletion of Rb gene is in existance in human lung cancer, especially in small cell lung cancer. This may be useful for studying the cause of lung cancer.
