Abstract excerpt
Uterine leiomyomas (uLMs) are the most prevalent benign tumors of the female reproductive system. MED12 is one of the mediator complex subunits that has been implicated in uLMs pathogenesis. Somatic mutations in exon2-MED12 have been found in ~ 70% of uLMs. In this study, we investigated the status of exon2-MED12 in uLMs from Syrian patients. Sixteen leiomyomas from nine patients were assessed. Genomic DNA was...
