Abstract excerpt
To study the possible role of ras oncogene activation in the dissemination of colon cancer, we determined point mutations in codons 12, 13 and 61 in K- and N-ras in 3 groups of tumors: (A) primary tumors of patients who had undergone surgery for Dukes' B (early-stage) colon cancer, (B) primary tumors and metastases from patients undergoing resection of isolated lung metastases and (C) primary tumors and...
