Abstract
The c-erbB-1 and c-erbB-2 proto-oncogenes are frequently activated by gene amplification and overexpression in a variety of human cancers. In an analysis of a large series of benign and malignant thyroid tumours, no abnormalities of structure or expression of either of c-erbB-1 or c-erbB-2 were found. Activation of these oncogenes is not a necessary event in neoplasia of this epithelial system.Entities:
