Beschreibung:
Li-Fraumeni syndrome is manifested in a variety of neoplasms that are transmitted in a dominantly inherited pattern. The noncancerous skin fibroblasts of family members exhibit a unique characteristic of being resistant to the killing effect of ionizing radiation. A three- to eightfold elevation in expression of c-myc and an apparent activation of c-raf-1 gene have been observed in these noncancerous skin fibroblasts. These results may provide insight into the heritable defect underlying the familial predisposition to a variety of cancers.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Chang, E H -- Pirollo, K F -- Zou, Z Q -- Cheung, H Y -- Lawler, E L -- Garner, R -- White, E -- Bernstein, W B -- Fraumeni, J W Jr -- Blattner, W A -- CA45158/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CO7488/CO/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1987 Aug 28;237(4818):1036-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3616624" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
