The GAS1 gene product induces growth arrest through a p53-dependent mechanism. To investigate whether GAS1 is a tumor suppressor gene, we transfected GAS1-negative human tumor cells with GAS1 plasmids and analyzed growth characteristics of stable transfectants. When a constitutively expressing GAS1

## Abstract A variety of neoplasms of the human nervous system were analyzed for the presence of mutations in the __p53__ tumor suppressor gene. DNA was extracted from frozen or formalinβfixed, paraffinβembedded material. Singleβstrand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis for exons 5β8 was fol
## Abstract The lack of efficacy of available therapies for the treatment of malignant melanoma has emphasized the need to develop novel therapeutic strategies to prevent melanoma growth. We have tested whether the antiβHMWβMAA mAb 225.28S is able to inhibit human melanoma tumor growth in SCID mice
