Abstract excerpt
A series of 54 resected primary non-small-cell lung carcinomas was analyzed for p53 gene mutations and for p53 protein accumulation and the findings were correlated with clinical parameters. Mutations in exons 5 through 8 of the p53 gene were identified by a denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) assay and cycle sequencing, whereas p53 protein accumulation was detected in paraffin-embedded tissue by...
