3 Parser Run on Genia Corpus Among 25 cases, 2 homozygous deletions and 1 hemizygous deletion were found in HCC samples. No point mutation was identified in the remaining 22 tumor samples without p16 gene deletions. Hypermethylation was detected in 24% (6/25) of tumor samples. However, the corresponding non-tumor liver tissue specimens were always unmethylated at the p16 locus. Loss of p16 protein expression occurred in 16 of 35 (45.7%) tumor samples, and all the non-tumor liver tissue specimens showed positive p16 staining. For the 25 cases examined for p16 gene alterations, the loss of p16 protein expression was observed in all tumors with p16 gene alterations and also in 3 tumors without p16 gene alterations.

5 Social Media User Opinions: Negative The acting is below average, even from the likes of Curtis. You're more likely to get a kick out of her work in Halloween H20. Sutherland is wasted and Baldwin, well, he's acting like a Baldwin, of course. The real star here are Stan Winston's robot design, some schnazzy CGI, and the occasional good gore shot, like picking into someone's brain. So, if robots and body parts really turn you on, here's your movie. Otherwise, it's pretty much a sunken ship of a movie. 5/1/12 5

6 Social Media User Opinions: Positive From here on, the plot takes a back seat, and we are treated to some of the best camera work and action staged. Most all the action is plausible and will hold you at the edge of your seat. There are a few melodramatic parts here, but, they tend to work out well. There is no general antagonist in this film, but the action and suspense makes you forget all about that. Daylight is a great film, I saw a non-matinee showing of it, and I thought it was worth every penny. The characterizations are mostly flat, one dimesional, but they have enough in them to get you to care for some of the characters. Rob Cohen (Dragonheart) does a great job with this film. 5/1/12 6
