Abstract

The Molecular Origins of Cancer series continues with this review of molecular and genetic mechanisms of lung cancer. The authors review genetic susceptibility to lung cancer and four genes of importance in the evolution of the disease: EGFR, KRAS, the PI3K–Akt–mTOR complex, and TITF1. They also discuss gene profiling and protein profiling, with emphasis on the clinical value of these methods.

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.
