In lung
cancer, replacement of the wild type of p53 is found mutated or deleted is

animal models are p16 and retinoblastoma (rb).
Furthermore, alternative genic therapies that increase the effectiveness of
a radio- or chemotherapy like the transfer of the genes TNF-a
, IL-6, IFN-x, Bax, antisnetidos para Bcl-2 & Bcr-Abl.
