Abstract excerpt
Recent identification of somatic MED12 mutations in most uterine leiomyomas brings a new venue for the study of the tumorigenesis of leiomyomas. We are particularly interested in the correlation of MED12 and HMGA2 gene products in leiomyomas and leiomyosarcomas with and without MED12 mutations. To address these issues, in this study we examined MED12 mutations in a large cohort of usual type leiomyomas (178...
