Abstract excerpt
In order to understand the role of gene mutations in endometrial carcinogenesis, whole exome sequencing via laser microdissection was performed in the normal endometrium, atypical endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial carcinoma in the same patient. A total of 4046 and 5746 mutations with amino acid substitution were detected in endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial carcinoma, respectively; 2252 were common in...
