Journal ArticleDOI

Oncogenic signaling by Kit tyrosine kinase occurs selectively on the Golgi apparatus in gastrointestinal stromal tumors

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that in cancer tissue from primary GIST patients as well as in cell lines, mutant Kit accumulates on the Golgi apparatus, whereas normal Kit localizes to the plasma membrane (PM) and may offer a new strategy for treating imatinib-resistant GISTs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Percutaneous biopsy for prognostic testing of neuroblastoma.

TL;DR: Percutaneous biopsy of advanced neuroblastoma is a feasible alternative to open biopsy, and N-myc and ploidy determinations were successful in all five biopsy specimens obtained since September 1994.
Journal ArticleDOI

Complex cytogenetic aberrations in a well-differentiated chondrosarcoma.

TL;DR: In chondrosarcoma, it appears that "high-grade" cytogenetic abnormalities do not necessarily engender a high-grade histology, which offers a possible explanation for the clinical aggressiveness of certain low-grade chondosarcomas.
