Objective: To determine the relationship between location of the tumor, age and sex of patients and histological grading of it. Patients and Methods: In this retrospective study, 44631 files of the patients who were referred to tw...

background: the most frequently mutated tumor suppressor gene found in human cancer is p53. in a normal situation, p53 is activated upon the induction of dna damage to either arrest the cell cycle or to induce apoptosis. however, when mutated, p53 is no longer able to properly accomplish these functions. the aim of this study was to investigate the expression of p53 gene in cases of skin cancer...
