An update of laparoscopy in cervical cancer staging: is it a useful procedure?

abstract：:The energy status of HeLa cells arrested in the G2 phase of the cell cycle by the antineoplastic agent cis-acid was compared with that of normal G2-phase-synchronized cells. The results showed that treatment with the drug has significantly decreased the adenylate pool, adenylate energy charge and phosphorylation poten...
