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 leiomyo...
