Loss of heterozygosity on chromosome 9 has been reported in a variety of human cancers. The cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p16 gene, mapped on chromosome 9p21, is presumed to be the tumor-suppressor gene localized in this chromosome. The aim of our study was to determine, in 26 Barrett's adenocar
The tumor suppressor gene CDKN2A (MTS1/p16), located on chromosome 9p21, is inactivated in a variety of tumors including melanomas and tumors of the biliary tract, pancreas, and stomach. The aim of the present study was to determine whether this gene is inactivated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
The tumor suppressor gene CDKN2 (p16/MTS1) resides on chromosome 9p21 and encodes a 16 kDa inhibitor of the cyclin-dependent kinases. Inactivation of CDKN2 by homozygous deletion, point mutation, and recently described aberrant methylation in the 5' promoter region may increase progression through t
