Abstract excerpt
The hypothesis that rare variable nucleotide tandem repeat alleles of the Ha-ras-1 polymorphism are an inherited predisposing factor in human lung carcinogenesis has been evaluated in an age, race, and smoking matched case-control study. Twenty-three different alleles were identified by their restriction fragment length in DNA isolated from peripheral blood lymphocytes and were categorized into three groups:...
