Heterogeneity of mutant versus wild-type Ki-ras in primary and metastatic colorectal carcinomas, and association of codon-12 valine with early mortality
1 Jun 1998
Abstract excerpt
The point mutations occurring in codons 12 and 13 of Ki-ras in 78 patients with colorectal carcinoma (31 Dukes' A and B, 21 Dukes' C, and 26 Dukes' D) have been determined by allele-specific oligonucleotide hybridization and sequencing. Duplicate samples of invasive primary carcinoma, adjacent normal tissue, and available lymph node and liver metastases from the same patients were microdissected from paraffin...
