Abstract excerpt
Specific genetic mutations in human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16) DNA are considered important in cervical lesion progression. This study analyzes to what extent radiotherapy treatment contributes to viral DNA mutation in cervical cell carcinomas, and the biological significance of these mutations. Serial tumor tissue, including 44 cervical cancer samples, collected before and after radiotherapy, and 52 biopsies...
