The fragile histidine triad (FHIT) tumor suppressor gene at 3p14.2 has abnormalities in several types of human cancers. To investigate the potential role of FHIT in cervical cancer, which exhibits frequent loss of heterozygosity of 3p, we have examined primary cervical cancer samples from 28 patient

Most cervical carcinomas appear to arise from cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) lesions. In addition to infection with high-risk human papilloma viruses, which is indicative of an increased risk of progression, alterations of oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes play a role. Genetic studies o
Background and Objectives: Glassy cell carcinoma (GCC) of the uterine cervix is a rare and highly malignant tumor, accounting for only 1%-2% of all cervical carcinomas. The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical findings, treatment, and outcome of patients with cervical GCC in the sou
## BACKGROUND. There are few reports on the cytologic features of small cell carcinoma (SMCC) of the uterine cervix. ## METHODS. The clinical records, histopathology, and available cervical smears from all cases of SMCC of the uterine cervix in the files of the British Columbia Cancer Agency be
A cell-mediated cytotoxicity assay was used to evaluate the specific reactivity of patients with squamous cell carcinoma to an established cell line derived from squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix. Heat inactivated sera from patients with squamous cell carcinoma could very effectively nullify thi
