The ABO and Lewis blood group antigens are cell surface carbohydrate determinants formed by the sequential addition of saccharides to precursor backbone structures of membrane lipids and proteins. Suppression of normally active glycosyltransferases results in the absence of antigens that are normall
The observation of mitotic figures in the epithelium of the normal gallbladder is exceptional because cell renewal is occurring at a very slow rate. It is only after using 3H-thymidine and autoradiography to observe the cells in DNA synthesis that evidence of a significant epithelial cell replicatio
Colposcopically directed cervical punch biopsies from 362 patients were screened by Southern blot hybridization for the presence of D N A of human papillomavirus (HPV) 6, 10, II. 16, 18, 31 and 33. The biopsies represented original squamous epithelium, epithelium of metaplastic origin, different sta
