Different studies of Wilms' tumours have demonstrated a loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of chromosome 16q ranging from 17 to 25%. In order to search for a potential tumour suppressor gene on 16q, we chose the calcium-dependent cell adhesion molecules E-cadherin and cadherin-11 as candidate genes, which
Much progress has been made in identifying genes mutated during the development of colorectal carcinoma. Mutation of the APC gene in particular appears to be fundamental for colorectal tumour initiation. In contrast, loss of expression of E-cadherin appears to be a late event, which may be important
