## Abstract Gastric carcinoma is one of the most common types of cancer in Taiwan. Somatic mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) alteration in gastric carcinoma and its association with clinicopathologic features remain unclear. When we used polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and direct sequencing, 15 of the 31 (
## Abstract Somatic mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) have been demonstrated in various tumors, including breast cancer. However, it still remains unclear whether the alterations in mtDNA are related to the clinicopathological features and/or the prognosis in the breast cancer. We analyzed som
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations have been implicated in a wide range of human disease. However, its role in gestational trophoblastic disease remains unclear. In this study, the entire mitochondrial genome of 10 hydatidiform moles (HM) and one choriocarcinoma were examined by automated DNA seque
## Communicated by Henrik Dahl Seven mtDNA mutations (five base substitutions and two deletions) were studied in skeletal muscle samples of 18 human subjects aged 1 hr to 90 years. Quantitative PCR procedures were applied to determine the incidence (frequency of occurrence) and abundance (percentag
## Abstract Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) large deletions and mtDNA mutations have been demonstrated in various types of human cancer. The relationship between the occurrence of such alterations and the nuclear microsatellite instability (MSI) status of the neoplastic cells remains controversial. In an
