## Background: Experimental evidence has shown that thymidine phosphorylase (dthdpase) is identical to platelet-derived endothelial cell growth factor (pd-ecgf) and has angiogenic activity. the enzymatic activity of dthdpase was needed for the angiogenesis by the enzyme. these observations were cat
## Abstract Deleted in Colorectal Cancer (DCC) is a putative tumor suppressor gene, whose loss has been implicated in colorectal tumorigenesis. Decreased or loss of DCC expression has been demonstrated in a number of human cancers, including esophageal cancer. In this study, we analyzed esophageal
## Abstract We previously reported the presence of HPV DNA in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cases from Hong Kong and Sichuan. The role of HPV in the carcinogenesis of ESCC remains unclear, partly due to the large variations in infection rates reported by different studies. While some of
