✦ Synopsis


We have analyxed 29 neuroblastomas for TP53 mutations in exons 5 to 8 by means of the polymerase chain reaction in combination with the single-strand conformation polymorphism technique. We could not detect any mutation. These results indicate that, in contrast to the majority of tumors so far studied, TP53 mutations do not seem to be important for the development of neuroblastomas.

## Abstract Neuroblastoma (NB) is the most common extracranial solid tumor in children below the age of 5 years. miR‐34a, located in chromosome band 1p36, has been recently implicated as a tumor suppressor gene in NB. In addition, it has been shown that miR‐34a is activated by __TP53__ by binding t
