## BACKGROUND. Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) is a key rate-limiting enzyme in polyamine biosynthesis. Several studies using an enzyme assay revealed that the ODC activity was higher in tumor tissue than in normal tissue. However, there is little information on the mRNA status of ODC in surgical sp
Using in situ hybridization techniques, we examined the expression of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) mRNA in the skin of five patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) and five normal controls. Sections treated with an anti-sense probe showed concentrated grains exclusively in the epidermis of SSc patie
