Oncogenes and a specific chromosomal abnormality associated with small-cell lung cancers
Abstract:
Studies on oncogenes and a specific chromosomal abnormality involved in small-cell lung cancers are reviewed. Amplification and/or expression of one of the three myc family oncogenes (c-myc, N-myc, L-myc) were found in 21 of 31 small-cell lung cancers. However, oncogenes were not detected in DNAs of small-cell lung cancers by the NIH3T3 transfection assay. In addition, a specific deletion on the short arm of chromosome number 3 was often associated with small-cell lung cancers. These characteristics are quite different from those of non-small-cell lung cancers.

Cancers Originate from Somatic Mutations in a Single Cell
Cancer-Critical Genes I: Proto-oncogenes
When the function of certain critical genes, especially those involved in cell cycle regulation and cell growth signaling cascades, gets disrupted, it upsets the cell cycle progression. Such cells with unchecked cell cycles start proliferating uncontrollably and eventually develop into tumors.
