Relation of transmembrane potential to cell survival following hyperthermia in HeLa cells.

abstract：:Mutation of the p53 gene has been reported in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) occurring worldwide. The most frequent p53 mutation has been found in HCCs in regions with high hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and intake of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1). The aim of our study was to examine p53 protein expression in HCCs from a hig...
