## Abstract In East Asia and Singapore, the human nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) presented clinically is mainly of the undifferentiated type. In contrast, the well‐differentiated squamous NPC is more commonly detected in the West. To study the potential differences in carcinogenesis between undiffe
The parentally imprinted allele (PIA) typing that we have recently developed determines parental alleles at a VNTR locus in the differentially methylated region upstream of the human H19 gene. The usefulness of this typing was demonstrated by its application to blood samples in paternity cases. Howe
