## Abstract Several studies have shown that E‐cadherin expression is lost during malignant transformation. We hypothesized that CpG methylation in the promoter region may inactivate the expression of the E‐cadherin gene in human bladder cancer. Normal and bladder cancer samples from 51 patients wer
In previous reports, we described that DPC4/Smad4 and Smad2 are mutated in a fraction of human lung cancers and suggested possible roles of the downstream mediators of transforming growth factor- (TGF-)-elicited signals in the pathogenesis of this most common cancer. In the present study, we inves
