Abstract excerpt
We investigated skin lesions induced in hairless SKH:HR1 mice by chronic exposure to a solar ultraviolet light (UV) simulator for alterations of the p53 gene in conserved domains. Mutations of exons 5-8 of the p53 gene in skin lesions were screened in 31 benign skin lesions (hyperplasias), 25 precancerous skin lesions (keratoacanthomas), and 25 malignant skin lesions (squamous cell carcinomas; SCC) by polymerase...
