Abstract excerpt
To investigate whether genetic changes of the p53 gene and genetic defects in DNA-mismatch repair systems are involved in progression of colorectal carcinomas (CRCs), we examined loss of heterozygosity (LOH) on 17p and mutations in exon 5 through 8 of the p53 gene as well as replication errors (RER) at four microsatellite loci in DNAs from 108 CRCs at all clinical stages (20 Dukes A, 40 Dukes b, 48 Dukes C). We...
