Abstract excerpt
To examine the relationship between uterine leiomyoma, an estrogen-dependent tumor and its estrogen receptor, the relative amounts of wild type estrogen receptor (WT) mRNA and exon 5 deleted estrogen receptor variant (D5-ER) mRNA to G3PDH mRNA were examined in human uterine myometrium and leiomyoma specimens obtained from 46 patients in 3 age groups (group A: 41-45 years old, group B: 46-50 years old, group C:...
