Abstract excerpt
The correlation of p53 protein overexpression and the K-ras codon 12 mutation with histologic type, grade of cytologic atypia, depth of invasion and other histologic prognostic factors was studied in paraffin sections from 43 ductectatic- and 70 solid-type pancreatic ductal carcinomas. Overexpression of p53 was found in 23.3% (10/43) of ductectatic carcinomas (17.2% of intraductal and 35.7% of invasive...
