Abstract excerpt
The size of human cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) biopsies is usually very small and standard methods do not allow an adequate number of keratinocytes to be isolated for culturing purposes. In this study, a new approach to establish keratinocyte cultures from small CIN a tissue fragments was developed. Neoplastic specimens and corresponding normal tissues, which were used as controls, were digested with...
