Target lemma: tissue
Target surface form: tissue
Context:
The discovery "suddenly puts an obscure gene right in the cockpit of cancer formation, "says Robert Weinberg, a leader in cancer-gene research at Whitehead Institute in Cambridge, Mass. Evidence now is emerging that the p53 suppressor gene is involved in other cancers, too. Researchers in Edinburgh, Scotland, have found that in 23 of 38 breast tumors, one copy of chromosome 17 was mutated at the spot where gene p53 lies. The scientists say that since breast cancer often strikes multiple members of certain families, the gene, when inherited in a damaged form, may predispose women to the cancer. The p53 gene has just been implicated in lung cancer. In a report out last week, John Minna and colleagues at the National Cancer Institute say that about half the cells taken from lung cancer <t>tissue</t> they tested are missing this gene. There also are reports from several labs, as yet unpublished, of missing p53 genes in tissue taken from kidney, brain and skin cancers.

raw_output:
To determine the correct sense of the word "tissue" in the given context, let's analyze the information provided.

The context is discussing cancer research, specifically the involvement of the p53 suppressor gene in various types of cancers. It mentions researchers finding mutations or missing genes in cells taken from different cancerous tissues.

1. The first sense provided is: "part of an organism consisting of an aggregate of cells having a similar structure and function." This definition aligns with the context of cancer research and the mention of cells and genes, which are related to biological tissues.

2. The second sense is: "a soft thin (usually translucent) paper," also known as "tissue paper." While this is a common usage of the word "tissue," it doesn't fit the context of the passage, which is discussing biological and medical research.

Given the context, the word "tissue" is used in relation to "lung cancer tissue," "breast tumors," and "tissue taken from kidney, brain and skin cancers." This usage clearly refers to biological tissue, not tissue paper.

Therefore, the best indexed sense for "tissue" in this context is the first one, which corresponds to the definition related to biological tissue.

raw_output:
To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "tested" in the given context, let's analyze the context and the provided candidate senses.

The context is about researchers examining cells taken from lung cancer tissue to check if they are missing the p53 gene. The sentence specifically says, "about half the cells taken from lung cancer tissue they tested are missing this gene."

Let's examine the candidate senses:

1. The first sense is about putting something to the test for its quality or giving it experimental use. While this involves testing, it's broad and not directly related to checking for the presence or absence of a specific gene.

2. The second sense involves testing or examining for the presence of disease or infection. This is somewhat relevant because it involves medical testing, but the specific context here is about checking cells for a missing gene, not directly for disease or infection presence.

3. The third sense is about examining someone's knowledge, which is not relevant to the context of testing cells.

4. The fourth sense is about showing a certain characteristic when tested. While this could be related, the context is more about determining the presence or absence of a gene rather than the cells showing a characteristic.

5. The fifth sense is about achieving a certain score or rating, which is not relevant to the context.

6. The sixth sense is about determining the presence or properties of a substance. This is highly relevant because testing cells to see if they are missing a specific gene involves determining the presence or absence of that gene, which can be considered a substance or a specific genetic material.

7. The seventh sense is about undergoing a test, which is the opposite of what is described; the cells are being tested, not undergoing a test in the sense of being the subject that is tested.

Given the context and the provided candidate senses, the most appropriate sense is the sixth: "determine the presence or properties of (a substance)." This is because the researchers are testing cells to determine if they are missing the p53 gene, which aligns with determining the presence or absence of a specific genetic substance.

Therefore, the best indexed sense for "tested" in the given context is 6.

raw_output:
To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "missing" in the given context, let's analyze the provided information step by step.

1. **Context Understanding**: The passage discusses research related to the p53 gene and its involvement in various cancers. It mentions that cells taken from lung cancer tissue are "missing" this gene.

2. **Target Word Analysis**: The target word is "missing," which is a form of the lemma "miss." The context implies that the cells lack or do not have the p53 gene.

3. **Candidate Senses Analysis**:
   - **1. fail to perceive or to catch with the senses or the mind**: This doesn't fit as the context is about the absence of a gene, not about perception.
   - **2. feel or suffer from the lack of**: This sense is more about emotional longing, which doesn't apply here.
   - **3. fail to attend an event or activity**: Not relevant as the context is about genetic material, not events or activities.
   - **4. leave undone or leave out**: While this could imply absence, it's more about an action of omission rather than a state of being without something.
   - **5. fail to reach or get to**: This is more related to movement or achieving a destination, not applicable here.
   - **6. be without**: This sense fits as it directly relates to lacking something. The synonym "lack" is provided, and an example is "There is something missing in my jewelry box!" which aligns with the context of cells being without a gene.
   - **7. fail to reach**: This is more about not achieving a target, not directly relevant.
   - **8. be absent**: This could fit in a broad sense as it talks about something not being present. However, the specific context is about cells lacking a gene, which is more about the state of being without something rather than just being absent.
   - **9. fail to experience**: This doesn't directly apply as the context is not about experiencing or not experiencing an event.

4. **Choosing the Best Sense**: The most relevant sense here is **6. be without** because it directly corresponds to the idea of cells lacking the p53 gene. The synonym "lack" and the example "There is something missing in my jewelry box!" support this interpretation.

5. **Conclusion**: The best indexed sense for "missing" in the given context is **6**.

Therefore, the JSON response is: {"sense_index": 6}

raw_output:
To determine the correct sense of the word "tissue" in the given context, let's analyze the information provided.

The context is about cancer research, specifically discussing the involvement of the p53 suppressor gene in various types of cancers, including breast, lung, kidney, brain, and skin cancers. The text mentions "lung cancer tissue" and "tissue taken from kidney, brain and skin cancers."

Given this context, we need to consider the two candidate senses for "tissue":

1. "part of an organism consisting of an aggregate of cells having a similar structure and function"
2. "a soft thin (usually translucent) paper" (synonyms: tissue paper)

The context clearly relates to biological or medical research, discussing cells and genes in relation to cancer. Therefore, the use of "tissue" here refers to biological tissue, which is "part of an organism consisting of an aggregate of cells having a similar structure and function." This matches the first candidate sense.

The second sense, referring to "tissue paper," does not fit the context as the discussion is about cancer research and biological samples, not about paper products.

Thus, the correct sense of "tissue" in the given context is the first one.

Context:
Evidence now is emerging that the p53 suppressor gene is involved in other cancers, too. Researchers in Edinburgh, Scotland, have found that in 23 of 38 breast tumors, one copy of chromosome 17 was mutated at the spot where gene p53 lies.

2. WordNet glosses are schematic; use the context, synonyms, and examples together.
3. Do not answer with a WordNet sense key.
4. Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}.

raw_output:
To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "At the same time" in the given context, let's analyze the provided information step by step.

1. **Understanding the Context**: The passage discusses recent findings in cancer research, specifically focusing on the role of the p53 gene in various cancers and the efforts of different research teams to identify other tumor-suppressor genes.

2. **Target Expression**: The target expression is "At the same time." This phrase is used to connect the information about the p53 gene's involvement in different cancers to the efforts of research teams, like the Johns Hopkins team, to identify other tumor-suppressor genes.

3. **Analyzing Candidate Senses**:
   - **Sense 1**: "at the same instant" with synonyms like "simultaneously." This implies two or more events happening at exactly the same moment.
   - **Sense 2**: "overlapping in duration" with synonyms like "concurrently." This suggests that two or more events are happening during the same period, not necessarily at the exact same instant.

4. **Applying Context to Candidate Senses**:
   - The context indicates that while there are reports and findings about the p53 gene's involvement in various cancers, research teams are also working on identifying other tumor-suppressor genes. This is not about events happening at the exact same instant but rather about different activities or events occurring during the same general period.

5. **Choosing the Best Sense**:
   - The phrase "At the same time" here indicates that the action of the Johns Hopkins team and others rushing to pinpoint other tumor-suppressor genes is happening concurrently with the other research and findings being discussed. It does not imply that these events are happening at the exact same instant but rather that they are occurring during the same period.

6. **Conclusion**: The best sense for "At the same time" in this context is the one that indicates concurrent or overlapping activities. This matches **Sense 2**, which is defined as "overlapping in duration" and is associated with the synonym "concurrently."

Therefore, the best indexed sense is **2**.

To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "team" in the given context, let's analyze the provided information step by step.

1. **Context Analysis**: The passage discusses research related to cancer, specifically focusing on genetic factors and the work of various scientists and research groups. The sentence containing the target word "team" is: "At the same time, the Johns Hopkins team and others are rushing to pinpoint other tumor-suppressor genes." Here, "team" refers to a group of researchers working together.

2. **Candidate Senses**:
   - **1. sense_key=team%1:14:00::**: This sense defines "team" as "a cooperative unit (especially in sports)" with a synonym "squad".
   - **2. sense_key=team%1:14:01::**: This sense defines "team" as "two or more draft animals that work together to pull something".

3. **Analysis of Candidate Senses**:
   - The context clearly indicates that "team" refers to a group of researchers, not animals. Thus, sense 2 is not applicable.
   - Sense 1 defines "team" as a cooperative unit, which can apply to any collaborative group, not just sports teams. The synonym "squad" supports this broader interpretation, as a squad can be any closely knit group working together.

4. **Choosing the Best Indexed Sense**:
   - Given that "team" refers to a group of researchers working together at Johns Hopkins, the most appropriate sense is the one that describes a cooperative unit. Although the context is not about sports, the definition's broader interpretation fits the usage here, as it emphasizes cooperation.

5. **Conclusion**: The best indexed sense for "team" in the given context is **1**, as it correctly identifies the term with a cooperative unit, which aligns with the context of researchers working together.

The response in the required JSON format is: {"sense_index": 1}

raw_output:
To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "rushing" in the given context, let's analyze the context and the provided candidate senses.

The context is about researchers and scientists working to identify and understand certain genes related to various cancers. The sentence with the target word is: "At the same time, the Johns Hopkins team and others are rushing to pinpoint other tumor-suppressor genes."

The key here is understanding the action described by "rushing." The researchers are working quickly or with urgency to achieve a goal, which is to "pinpoint other tumor-suppressor genes."

Let's examine the candidate senses:

1. **move fast** - This sense involves moving quickly, which can be literal or figurative. The synonyms include "hasten," "speed," and "race," and an example is "He rushed down the hall to receive his guests." This sense is plausible because it involves the idea of moving or acting quickly.

2. **attack suddenly** - This sense implies a sudden attack, which doesn't fit the context of researchers working on genes.

3. **urge to an unnatural speed** - This involves urging someone or something to go faster than is natural or normal. An example given is "Don't rush me, please!" This sense implies an external pressure to speed up.

4. **act or move at high speed** - This is about acting or moving quickly. The synonyms include "hasten," "hurry," and "look sharp." An example is "We have to rush!; hurry--it's late!" This sense fits the context as it describes the researchers acting with urgency.

5. **run with the ball, in football** - This is a specific action related to the sport of football and doesn't fit the context.

6. **cause to move fast or to rush or race** - This involves causing something or someone to move quickly. An example is "The psychologist raced the rats through a long maze." While this involves the concept of speeding up, it's more about causing the action rather than the action itself.

7. **cause to occur rapidly** - This is about causing an event or process to happen more quickly. While related to the concept of speeding up a process, it's more about causation.

Given the context, the researchers are described as acting with urgency or haste to achieve their goal. The most fitting definition is **act or move at high speed** (sense 4), as it directly describes the action of the researchers working quickly to pinpoint other tumor-suppressor genes. The synonym "hurry" is particularly relevant here, as it matches the context of working with urgency.

Therefore, the best indexed sense for "rushing" in this context is sense 4.

raw_output:
To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "hopes" in the given context, let's analyze the provided information step by step.

1. **Context Analysis**: The passage discusses scientific research related to cancer, specifically focusing on genes that may predispose individuals to certain types of cancer or suppress tumors. Dr. Vogelstein is mentioned as part of a team at Johns Hopkins, and it's stated that he "hopes soon to isolate one on chromosome 18, also involved in colon cancer."

2. **Understanding the Target Word**: The target word is "hopes," which is a form of the lemma "hope." The sentence in which "hopes" appears indicates Dr. Vogelstein's intention or expectation regarding isolating a specific gene.

3. **Examining Candidate Senses**:
   - **Sense 1**: "expect and wish" with synonyms "trust, desire." The example given is "I trust you will behave better from now on; I hope she understands that she cannot expect a raise." This sense leans towards a more emotional or aspirational connotation.
   - **Sense 2**: "be optimistic; be full of hope; have hopes." The example is "I am still hoping that all will turn out well." This sense focuses on being optimistic about a future outcome.
   - **Sense 3**: "intend with some possibility of fulfilment" with a synonym "go for." The example provided is "I hope to have finished this work by tomorrow evening." This sense implies having an intention or plan that is feasible.

4. **Applying Context to Candidate Senses**:
   - Dr. Vogelstein's statement about hoping to isolate a gene is within a context of scientific research and progress. It implies a level of intention and feasibility based on the current state of their research.
   - The context suggests that Dr. Vogelstein is not merely wishing or being optimistic without a basis. Instead, the team is actively working towards isolating the gene, indicating a level of intention and expectation based on their progress.

5. **Choosing the Best Indexed Sense**:
   - **Sense 1** ("expect and wish") and **Sense 2** ("be optimistic; be full of hope; have hopes") both convey a sense of aspiration or positive expectation. However, they don't fully capture the nuance of having a specific, feasible goal in mind, as is implied in the context of scientific research.
   - **Sense 3** ("intend with some possibility of fulfilment") fits well because it indicates that Dr. Vogelstein intends to isolate the gene and has a reasonable basis for believing this is possible, given the context of the research team's progress.

Given the context and the analysis above, the most appropriate sense for "hopes" is **Sense 3**, as it aligns with the intention and feasibility implied in the scientific context.

To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "finding" in the given context, let's analyze the sentence and the provided candidate senses.

The sentence is: "Ray White in Utah and Walter Bodmer, a researcher in Great Britain, are close to finding another gene involved with some types of colon cancer, thought to be on chromosome 5."

The context is about scientific research, specifically genetic research related to cancer. The word "finding" here is related to the process of discovering or identifying something, in this case, a gene associated with certain types of colon cancer.

Let's examine the relevant candidate senses:

1. **come upon, as if by accident; meet with** - This doesn't perfectly fit because the context implies a directed search rather than an accidental discovery.
2. **discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of** - This is a strong candidate because it involves discovering something through investigation or research.
3. **come upon after searching; find the location of something that was missed or lost** - While this involves searching, it slightly implies that the thing was previously known or lost, which isn't exactly the case here.
4. **establish after a calculation, investigation, experiment, survey, or study** - This is relevant as it involves determining something through investigation or research.
5. **make a discovery, make a new finding** - This is directly relevant as it involves the act of discovering something new.

Given the context, the most appropriate senses are related to discovering or determining the existence of something through research or investigation. Senses like "discover or determine the existence, presence, or fact of" (2) and "make a discovery, make a new finding" (8) are very relevant.

Between these, **"make a discovery, make a new finding" (8)** is the most fitting because it directly relates to the act of discovering a new gene, which is the context provided.

The sense index corresponding to "make a discovery, make a new finding" is 8.

Therefore, the JSON response is: {"sense_index": 8}

To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "types" in the given context, let's analyze the context and the provided candidate senses.

The context is discussing genes and their relation to various cancers, mentioning specific genes (like p53) and chromosomes involved in different types of cancers (lung, kidney, brain, skin, and colon cancer). The sentence with the target word is: "Ray White in Utah and Walter Bodmer, a researcher in Great Britain, are close to finding another gene involved with some types of colon cancer, thought to be on chromosome 5."

1. The first sense (1:09:00::) defines "type" as a subdivision of a particular kind of thing, with an example related to preferring a certain type of sculpture. This sense aligns with categorizing or classifying things into different kinds or categories.

2. The second sense (1:18:00::) refers to a person with many eccentricities, which doesn't fit the context of discussing genes and cancers.

3. The third sense (1:14:01::) is related to biology and taxonomy, referring to the taxonomic group whose characteristics define the next higher taxon. While this is a biological context, it specifically refers to taxonomy.

4. The fourth, fifth, and sixth senses (1:10:01::, 1:10:00::, 1:06:00::) relate to printed characters or metal blocks used for printing, which is unrelated to the context of genetics and cancer.

Given the context, the discussion is about categorizing colon cancer into different kinds based on genetic involvement. The word "types" here is used to indicate different categories or kinds of colon cancer.

The first sense (1:09:00::) fits this context as it refers to a subdivision or category of something (in this case, colon cancer), which matches the usage in the sentence.

Therefore, the best indexed sense for "types" in the given context is the first one.

To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "believes" in the given context, let's analyze the provided information step by step.

1. **Context Analysis**: The passage discusses recent findings and research in the field of cancer, specifically focusing on genes related to various types of cancer. Dr. Minna is quoted as having a certain view regarding the relationship between a defective gene on chromosome 3 and the propensity to lung cancer.

2. **Understanding the Target Sentence**: The sentence "Dr. Minna believes people who inherit a defective gene somewhere on one of their two copies of chromosome 3 are especially prone to lung cancer." indicates Dr. Minna's opinion or judgment based on his research or findings.

3. **Examining Candidate Senses**:
   - **1. accept as true; take to be true**: This involves accepting something as factual. While related, the context suggests Dr. Minna is forming an opinion based on his research.
   - **2. judge or regard; look upon; judge**: This involves having an opinion or making a judgment about something. The synonyms (think, consider, conceive) and examples (I think he is very smart; I believe her to be very smart) suggest a mental assessment or evaluation.
   - **3. be confident about something**: This implies having faith or trust in something happening or being true. The synonym (trust) and examples (I believe that he will come back from the war) suggest a level of certainty or confidence.
   - **4. follow a credo; have a faith; be a believer**: This is related to religious or ideological beliefs, which doesn't directly fit the context of scientific opinion or judgment.
   - **5. credit with veracity**: This involves believing someone or something to be truthful. The examples (You cannot believe this man; Should we believe a publication like the National Enquirer?) suggest assessing the trustworthiness of a source.

4. **Choosing the Best Indexed Sense**:
   - The sentence implies Dr. Minna has formed an opinion or judgment based on his research. The closest match is **2. judge or regard; look upon; judge** because it involves making a judgment or having an opinion about something (in this case, the relationship between a defective gene and lung cancer propensity). The use of "believes" here is akin to "thinks" or "considers," indicating his professional judgment or interpretation of data.

5. **Conclusion**: The best indexed sense for "believes" in the given context is **2**.

To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "inherit" in the given context, let's analyze the context and the provided candidate senses.

The context is discussing genetic factors related to various types of cancer, specifically mentioning the inheritance of a defective gene on chromosome 3 and its relation to lung cancer. The sentence where "inherit" appears is: "Dr. Minna believes people who inherit a defective gene somewhere on one of their two copies of chromosome 3 are especially prone to lung cancer."

1. The first candidate sense is defined as "obtain from someone after their death." The example given is "I inherited a castle from my French grandparents." This sense is related to the transfer of property or assets after someone's death, which doesn't fit the context of genetic transmission.

2. The second candidate sense is "receive from a predecessor." The example is "The new chairman inherited many problems from the previous chair." This sense is more about receiving responsibilities, problems, or assets from someone who previously held a position or role, not directly related to genetic inheritance.

3. The third candidate sense is "receive by genetic transmission." The example provided is "I inherited my good eyesight from my mother." This directly relates to the concept of receiving genetic traits from one's parents.

Given the context is about genetics and the transmission of a defective gene from parents to offspring, the most appropriate sense of "inherit" here is related to genetic transmission.

Therefore, the best indexed sense for "inherit" in this context is the third one.

To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "copies" in the given context, let's analyze the context and the provided candidate senses.

The context is discussing genetic research related to cancer, specifically mentioning chromosomes and genes. The sentence with the target word is: "Dr. Minna believes people who inherit a defective gene somewhere on one of their two copies of chromosome 3 are especially prone to lung cancer."

1. The first sense refers to "a reproduction of a written record," which doesn't fit the context of genetics and chromosomes.
2. The second sense defines "copy" as "a thing made to be similar or identical to another thing." This sense is relevant in genetics where a copy of a chromosome or gene refers to one of the instances of the chromosome or gene in a pair.
3. The third sense is related to "matter to be printed; exclusive of graphical materials," which is not relevant to the context.
4. The fourth sense refers to "material suitable for a journalistic account," which is also not relevant.

Given the context is about genetics and chromosomes, the most appropriate sense is the second one, which refers to something being made similar or identical to another. In genetics, individuals have two copies of each chromosome (one from each parent), and the text is discussing the concept of having a defective gene on one of these copies.

Therefore, the best indexed sense for "copies" in this context is the second sense.

To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "especially" in the given context, let's analyze the provided information step by step.

1. **Context Analysis**: The sentence where "especially" is used is: "Dr. Minna believes people who inherit a defective gene somewhere on one of their two copies of chromosome 3 are especially prone to lung cancer." Here, "especially" is used to indicate that people with a specific genetic condition are more prone to lung cancer than others, highlighting a greater extent or degree of proneness.

2. **Understanding the Candidate Senses**:
   - **Sense 1**: "to a distinctly greater extent or degree than is common" with synonyms like "particularly", "peculiarly", "specially". The example given is "he was particularly fussy about spelling".
   - **Sense 2**: "in a special manner" with a synonym "specially". The example is "a specially arranged dinner".

3. **Applying the Context to the Candidate Senses**:
   - For **Sense 1**, the definition matches the usage in the context. "Especially" here indicates that people with a certain genetic condition are more prone (to a greater extent or degree) to lung cancer than others. The synonym "particularly" could fit well in the given sentence, maintaining its meaning.
   - For **Sense 2**, the definition implies a manner that is special or unique. The example given ("a specially arranged dinner") suggests an arrangement that is not ordinary. However, in the context provided, "especially" is not describing a manner but rather the degree of proneness to lung cancer.

4. **Choosing the Best Indexed Sense**:
   - Given the context and the definitions, **Sense 1** is the most appropriate. It correctly captures the idea that the proneness to lung cancer is to a greater extent or degree in people with a specific genetic condition.

5. **Returning the Answer**:
   - The first sense is indexed as "1", so the correct JSON response is: {"sense_index": 1}.

To determine the best indexed sense for the target word "reported" in the given context, let's analyze the provided information step by step.

1. **Context Analysis**: The passage discusses recent findings and research in the field of genetics and cancer. It mentions several scientists and their work related to identifying genes involved in various types of cancers. The sentence with the target word "reported" indicates that Dr. Minna and others have made a public announcement or statement about their findings regarding the retinoblastoma suppressor gene's involvement in lung cancers and other common cancers.

2. **Understanding the Target Word**: The word "reported" is a verb here, indicating the act of making something known or announcing the results of an investigation or research.

3. **Examining Candidate Senses**:
   - **1. to give an account or representation of in words**: This involves describing something, which is somewhat relevant but not the most precise in this context since "reported" is used to announce findings.
   - **2. announce as the result of an investigation or experience or finding**: This definition fits well with the context, as "reported" is used to indicate that Dr. Minna and others announced their research findings.
   - **3. announce one's presence**: This is not relevant to the context, as "reported" does not refer to announcing one's presence.
   - **4. make known to the authorities**: This involves reporting something to those in charge, which is not the primary intention in the given context.
   - **5. be responsible for reporting the details of, as in journalism**: While this involves reporting, it's more specific to journalism, and the context doesn't limit the reporting to journalistic reporting.
   - **6. complain about; make a charge against**: This involves a negative connotation and reporting something negative to authorities, which doesn't fit the context.

4. **Choosing the Best Indexed Sense**: Based on the analysis, the most suitable definition for "reported" in the given context is **2. announce as the result of an investigation or experience or finding**. The examples provided for this sense ("Dozens of incidents of wife beatings are reported daily in this city; The team reported significant advances in their research") closely match the usage in the passage.

5. **Identifying the Sense Index**: The candidate sense that matches this definition is associated with "sense_key=report%2:32:04::". The sense index corresponding to this is **2**.

Context:
There also are reports from several labs, as yet unpublished, of missing p53 genes in tissue taken from kidney, brain and skin cancers. At the same time, the Johns Hopkins team and others are rushing to pinpoint other tumor-suppressor genes. Dr. Vogelstein hopes soon to isolate one on chromosome 18, also involved in colon cancer. Ray White in Utah and Walter Bodmer, a researcher in Great Britain, are close to finding another gene involved with some types of colon cancer, thought to be on chromosome 5. Dr. Minna believes people who inherit a defective gene somewhere on one of their two copies of chromosome 3 are especially prone to lung cancer. Recently, he and others reported that the retinoblastoma suppressor gene may also be <t>involved</t> in some lung cancers, as well as several other more common cancers, too. Where these discoveries will lead, scientists can only speculate.
