## Abstract Our previous study showed a characteristic p53 mutational spectrum in lung tumors from lung cancer patients in the Western Pennsylvania region. To further understand the involvement of p53 mutations in lung tumor development, in this study we compared p53 mutational spectra and distribu
The mineral fibers in lung tissue samples of 19 mesothelioma patients and 15 randomly selected autopsy cases were analyzed using low-temperature ashing, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and x-ray microanalysis. The fiber concentration ranged from 0.5 to 370 million fibers per gram of dry tissue in
## Abstract A very large variation (44‐fold) was observed in the ability of short‐term organ cultures of peripheral lung tissue from lung‐cancer patients to metabolize the environmental carcinogen benzo(a)pyrene to organic solvent‐soluble metabolites. The amounts of benzo(a)pyrene (2 μM) metabolize
