β¦ Synopsis
The nm23-H1 gene encodes a 17-kilodalton cytoplasmic and nuclear protein that has recently been shown to be reduced in a number of human carcinomas including breast, colorectal, lung, gallbladder, and biliary tract carcinomas. This study examines the immunohistochemical staining characteristics of the nm23-H1 protein in human laryngeal carcinomas and nonneoplastic laryngeal polyps, and attempts to determine if there is any relationship between reduction of nm23-H1 protein immunoreactivity and prognosis of patients with laryngeal carcinoma.

## Background: Nm23 has been recognized as a potential suppressor gene of metastasis. reduced nm23 expression in breast carcinoma has been found to correlate with axillary lymph node metastases, high grade tumors, and shorter survival. ## Methods: Nm23 protein was detected immunocytochemically us

## Abstract Expression of the candidate metastasisβsuppressor gene __nm23βH1__ has been shown to correlate inversely with metastatic potential in some human tumors, but not in all. Until now, few studies have been carried out on the activity of the homologous __nm23βH2__ gene in human cancer. No nm
