You stretch what seems like miles of extension cord around your house to weed whack, plug in Christmas lights, or just listen to some tunes while enjoying your yard. You think, for the hundreth time, it would be so much easier if your house had an outside electrical outlet. But what does it take to install an exterior outlet, and how much does it cost? According to highly rated electricians, itâs not as difficult or costly as you might think.
The HER2 gene codes for a receptor on the surface of some cancer cells, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2.These cancer cells may contain more than the usual two copies of the HER2 gene which can lead to overproduction of the receptors that are displayed on the cell's surface.Excess presence of these receptors leads to a more aggressive form of breast cancer that grows more quickly than other forms of cancer. HER2 positivity is indicated if there are more than six copies of the HER2 gene per cell or if more than 2.2 HER2 genes are found for each copy of chromosome 17. 2  The latter is termed the HER2 chromosome enumeration probe 17 or the CEP17 ratio.
SOX2: Embryo Gene Linked to Lethal Lung Cancer. Scientists have discovered genetic mutations linked to small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Among the genetic alterations identified was an increase in the number of copies (amplification) of a gene called SOX2. This gene is a TARGET for new treatments.
