## BACKGROUND. Prenatal exposure to the synthetic estrogen diethylstilbestrol (DES) is associated with the subsequent development of clear cell adenocarcinoma of the lower reproductive tract in young women, and data concerning the molecular genetic alterations involved in the etiology of this tumo
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND The characteristics of the phenotype of the malformed phenytoinβexposed infant can help to clarify the mechanism of the drug's teratogenesis. One postulated mechanism is vascular disruption. ## CASE An infant who was exposed to phenytoin as monotherapy throughout pregna
## Abstract We investigated point mutational activation of the __ras__ genes (Kβ__ras__ codons 12, 13 and 61; Nβ__ras__ codons 12, 13 and 61; Hβ__ras__ codons 12 and 61) in primary, resected lung cancer by dot blotting and oligonucleotide hybridization. Kβ__ras__ mutations were found in 14 (29%) of
