We have performed an intensive mutation survey of the Rb gene in 63 osteosarcomas. Loss
of heterozygosity (LOH) at the Rb locus was analyzed by using polymerase chain reaction …

We present here an analysis of the spectrum of mutations of the p53 gene seen in 127 bone
and soft tissue sarcomas of various histological classifications. Gross rearrangements were …

We have developed a new poly(vinyl alcohol) hydrogel (PVA‐H) of increased physical strength
through a new manufacturing process. Its mechanical properties have been found to be …

An apatite‐ and wollastonite‐containing glass‐ceramic (A · W‐GC) has been reported to
form a tight bond with living bone through an apatite layer formed on its surface. This layer is …

Partially stabilized zirconia ceramic is being recognized among ceramics for its high strength
and toughness. With this ceramic, is possible to manufacture a 22‐mm‐size femoral head …

SUCCESSIVE loss of function of both alleles of the retinoblastoma susceptibility gene (RB)
on human chromosome 13 seems to be critical in the development of retinoblastoma 1–3 …

Glass plates of the chemical composition: CaO (29.0), SiO 2 (31.0), Fe 2 O 3 (40.0), B 2 O 3 (3.0),
P 2 O 5 (3.0) in weight ratio were heated to 1050 C at a rate of 5 C/min and then cooled …

Recent evidence indicates that the mutation of retinoblastoma susceptibility (RB) gene is
also involved in the development of osteosarcoma. We studied 30 cases of osteosarcoma for …

A 29-year-old woman with an unusual form of pulmonary metastasis from epithelioid
sarcoma of the right forearm is presented. Since she manifested left pneumothorax due to …

Objective To investigate the septum-like structures in pre-dominantly lipomatous tumors, by
correlating fat-suppressed MR images with histopathologic findings. Design and patients …
