Abstract
Platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) is involved in the development of leiomyomas. The low-molecular-weight phosphoprotein-tyrosine-phosphatase (LMWPTP), controlled by the highly polymorphic acid phosphatase locus 1 (ACP1), is able to dephosphorylate the PDGF receptor. Therefore, we searched for a possible association between ACP1 and leiomyomas.File in questo prodotto:
