Abstract excerpt
This study screened 11 samples of typical carcinoid (TC), 4 samples of atypical carcinoid (AC), 1 sample of large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC), and four metastases for point mutations in exons 5 to 8 of the p53 gene, and exons 1 and 2 of the K-ras. H-ras, and N-ras genes using polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) and direct sequencing and by immunohistochemistry...
