Abstract excerpt

ras genes are known critical DNA targets for chemical carcinogens. Exocrine pancreatic cancer (EPC) is the human tumor with the highest prevalence of K-ras mutations at diagnosis. We analyzed the relationship between past occupational exposure to dyes, metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and other agents and mutations in codon 12 of the K-ras gene in 107 incident cases of EPC.
