Expression of the ROS1 oncogene for tyrosine receptor kinase in adult human meningiomas

JF Zhao, S Sharma - Cancer genetics and cytogenetics, 1995 - Elsevier
Oncogenes have been implicated in the promotion and progression of cancer in humans.
Expression of the ROS1 oncogene, a member of the receptor tyrosine kinase superfamily,
was examined in human meningiomas by coupled reverse transcription and polymerase
chain reaction (RT-PCR) assays. Two sets of region-specific oligonucleotides, specific for
different regions of the ROS1 messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA), were used in RT-PCR
assays to independently examine ROS1 transcripts from primary human meningiomas …
