Expression of mage genes by non‐small‐cell lung carcinomas

Weynants, P., Lethé, B., Brasseur, F., Marchand, M., Boon, T.·1994·International Journal of Cancer

Abstract

Human gene MAGE‐1 codes for an antigen that is recognized on melanoma cells by autologous cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL). This antigen is potentially useful as a target for cancer immunotherapy because gene MAGE‐1 is not expressed in any normal tissues except the testis. We tested 46 surgical samples of non‐small‐cell lung carcinomas and observed MAGE‐1 expression in 16 of them (35%). Genes MAGE‐2 and 3, which are closely related to MAGE‐1, were expressed by a similar proportion of these tumors. Some small‐cell lung tumors also express MAGE genes. The proportion of tumors expressing MAGE‐1 suggests that lung tumor patients may constitute the largest group of patients potentially eligible for pilot studies involving MAGE‐1 immunization.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
