Abstract excerpt
To examine K-, H-, or N-ras and p53 gene mutations in mouse endometrial carcinogenesis induced by N-methyl-N-nitrosourea and 17 beta-estradiol, we performed polymerase chain reaction-single strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) in 13 adenocarcinomas and 11 other preneoplastic lesions. A significant shifted band in exon 5 of p53 using PCR-SSCP was detected in one of 13 adenocarcinomas. Direct sequencing...
