The presence of point mutation at codons 12, 13 and 61 of the c-Ki-ras oncogene was investigated in 7 cases of gastric adenoma and 35 cases of gastric adenocarcinoma using DNA samples from formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tissues. Oligonucleotides encompassing the three codons were amplified by using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and then examined for point mutation by the selective oligonucleotide hybridization technique. Point mutation was detected in three of the 7 adenomas (43%) and three of the 35 carcinomas (9%). All the gastric adenomas showed the histology of tubular adenoma, being very similar to that of colonic adenoma. The 35 cases of gastric adenocarcinoma were classified into 17 cases of differentiated type and 18 cases of undifferentiated type including signet-ring cell carcinoma. The point mutation of c-Ki-ras oncogene was detected only in the differentiated type (3/17, 18%), and there was no case with point mutation in the undifferentiated type. These results suggest that the genetic mechanism of carcinogenesis differs between the differentiated type and the undifferentiated type of gastric adenocarcinoma, and also that c-Ki-ras activation is possibly involved in a relatively early step of the "adenoma-carcinoma sequence," which leads to the development of a portion of differentiated adenocarcinomas in the stomach.

D009154 Mutation Any detectable and heritable change in the genetic material that causes a change in the GENOTYPE and which is transmitted to daughter cells and to succeeding generations. Mutations
D009693 Nucleic Acid Hybridization Widely used technique which exploits the ability of complementary sequences in single-stranded DNAs or RNAs to pair with each other to form a double helix. Hybridization can take place between two complimentary DNA sequences, between a single-stranded DNA and a complementary RNA, or between two RNA sequences. The technique is used to detect and isolate specific sequences, measure homology, or define other characteristics of one or both strands.

D011905 Genes, ras Family of retrovirus-associated DNA sequences (ras) originally isolated from Harvey (H-ras, Ha-ras, rasH) and Kirsten (K-ras, Ki-ras, rasK) murine sarcoma viruses. Ras genes are widely conserved among animal species and sequences corresponding to both H-ras and K-ras genes have been detected in human, avian, murine, and non-vertebrate genomes. The closely related N-ras gene has been detected in human neuroblastoma and sarcoma cell lines. All genes of the family have a similar exon-intron structure and each encodes a p21 protein.
