Abstract excerpt
Revealing the molecular basis of human disease including cancer will be viewed as one of the triumphs of biomedical research in the 20th Century. One successful strategy has been to analyze abnormalities in cancer-related genes occurring in preneoplastic and neoplastic lesions in humans and animal models. These gene abnormalities, e.g., mutations, can be specifically linked in some cases to environmental...
