Abstract excerpt
Cyclin D1 plays an important role in the regulation of cell progression through G1 of the cell cycle and has been demonstrated to have oncogenic properties. Using RFLP-PCR, an A/G polymorphism within the cyclin D1 (CCND1) gene was analyzed in 151 sporadic human pituitary tumors, of which 60 were informative at this locus. Further analysis showed that in 15 of 60 (25%) tumors, there was evidence of allelic...
