Evaluation of the relationship between c-Kit expression and mean platelet volume in classic Kaposi's sarcoma [PDF]
: Background: c-Kit is a proto-oncogene that encodes tyrosine kinase receptor (CD117). Mean platelet volume (MPV) is a useful marker, providing information on platelet function and diameter.

Transcriptional activation of c-myc proto-oncogene by WT1 protein [PDF]
The Wilms' tumor 1 gene (WT1) plays an essential role in urogenital development and malignancy. Through DNA binding, WT1 can either enhance or repress transcription depending on the context of the DNA-binding sites or the cell type in which it is expressed.
