Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND/AIMS: The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of p53 mutations in European hepatocarcinogenesis. METHODS: DNA extracts from 20 microdissected tumor samples were investigated. Nucleotide sequence analysis of subcloned polymerase chain reaction-fragments of the conserved domain exons 5-8 was performed in order to detect heterogeneous distribution of p53 mutated cells within the tumors. In a...
