Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Do atypical bronchopulmonary carcinoids show a tendency toward increased apoptotic and proliferative activity?
Answer: This study suggests that the extent of apoptosis in bronchopulmonary carcinoid tumors is low. This, together with a low proliferation rate and an apparent absence of p53 mutation, enables a benign growth pattern. Some atypical carcinoids with enhanced apoptosis are associated with shortened survival, clearly deviating from typical carcinoids.
Output (English): yes
