Abstract excerpt
The pathogenetic significance of p53 and c-Ki-ras gene mutations and genomic integration of human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA was examined in surgically resected specimens of adenocarcinomas of the uterine cervix and isthmus using polymerase chain reaction (PCR), single-strand-conformation polymorphism and Southern blotting analysis. Among 25 cervical adenocarcinomas, p53 gene mutations between exons 5 and 8 were...
