## Abstract Tumorigenesis of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) is associated with various genetic changes such as loss of heterozygosity (LOH) on human chromosome 18q21. This chromosomal region maps a gene cluster coding for a family of intracellular serine protease inhibitors (serpins
## Abstract Chromosomal amplifications of the 11q13 genomic region are frequent in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). To identify novel 11q13 amplification targets, we integrated highโresolution arrayโbased comparative genomic hybridization and Affymetrix geneโexpression profiling of ei
The presence of gene amplification was determined in 66 fresh head-and-neck SCC specimens using a battery of 9 different probes. Amplification of at least one gene was found in I 2 samples (18%), of which 7 were amplified at multiple loci (58%). We observed amplifications for EGFR (10% of samples) a
