H-ras gene mutations in salivary gland mucoepidermoid carcinomas
1 Feb 2000
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The authors' recent investigation of salivary gland tumors in ras gene alteration has suggested that K-ras activation may not play a role in their oncogenesis but H-ras may, especially in mucoepidermoid carcinomas. A study was undertaken to assess the overall incidence of mutated H-ras genes in mucoepidermoid carcinomas and to discover its potential correlation with clinicopathologic parameters....
