Oncogenes in head and neck cancer.

The Laryngoscope - 1 Jan 1993

Irish J C, Bernstein A

Abstract excerpt

Primary head and neck squamous cell carcinomas from 58 patients were analyzed for the presence of alterations in the K-ras, raf, and erb-B oncogenes. Analysis of 17 fresh tumor specimens using sequence analysis of target sequences amplified by the polymerase chain reaction showed no evidence of m...
