## Abstract Among the identified factors involved in malignant transformation, abnormal methylation of the __CDKN2A/p16__^__INK4a__^ gene promoter has been described as an early event, particularly in bronchial cell cancerization. Precancerous bronchial lesions (__n__ = 70) prospectively sampled du
## Wild -type P16ICDKNZ MTSI) cDNA, directed by the cytomegalovirus (CMV) immediate early promoter, was transfected into RT4 and RTI I 2 bladder-carcinoma cell lines bearing a mutated endogenous P16ICDKNZ gene and lacking endogenous P 16lCDKN2 respectively. In both cases, only transfected clones w
