    Epigenetic inactivation of a RAS association domain family protein from the lung tumour suppressor locus 3p21.3

    Allelic loss at the short arm of chromosome 3 is one of the most common and earliest events in the pathogenesis of lung cancer, and is observed in more than 90% of small-cell lung cancers (SCLCs) and in 50–80%...
