High-level expression of H-Ras in neuroblastoma cells is associated with caspase cascade-independent, nonapoptotic PCD. This Ras-mediated nonapoptotic tumor cell death may play a key role in spontaneous regression of neuroblastoma.
None of our patients showed evidence of transition from favorable to unfavorable prognosis, a finding that points to a reduction in the significance of screening as a public health measure. Until results of ongoing screening trials involving older patients have been evaluated, the observation program can be used as a temporary measure to avoid, with little risk, unnecessary surgical intervention.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
