Abstract excerpt
In order to identify relevant genetic lesions in gastric carcinoma, we searched for tumor suppressor gene inactivation and K-ras gene mutations by analyzing tumor and control DNAs from 34 patients. These were from an epidemiologically defined area of Italy characterized by one of the world's high...
