## Background: P53 gene mutation and p53 protein accumulation are common in human cancer. however, their clinical significance is controversial and p53 accumulation may not correlate with gene mutation. the current study investigates the occurrence of p53 alterations in esophageal carcinoma, the co

A novel gene, termed p73, encodes a protein with a significant homology to p53 and has been mapped at chromosome 1p36.3, which is a locus of multiple suppressor genes for tumors including neuroblastoma and other cancers. Since the 1p36 locus is reported to be deleted and p53 is frequently mutated in
To better understand the roles of p53 and cell cycle-regulating protein alterations in human esophageal carcinogenesis, we investigated immunohistochemically the distribution patterns of Waf1p21, pRb, p16 and p53 in 22 cases of surgically resected esophageal cancer as well as in the neighboring non-
## Background: Patients with superficial (mucosal or submucosal) esophageal carcinoma (sec) have significantly better survival rates than patients with advanced carcinoma. some patients with advanced esophageal carcinoma have been reported to test positive for serum p53 antibodies (abs). because ve
## Abstract Although carcinoma of the uterine endometrium is the most frequently diagnosed malignancy of the female reproductive tract, the molecular genetic features of this tumor have yet to be described in significant detail. Since mutations of the __p53__ tumor suppressor gene are the single mo
## Abstract Esophageal carcinomas from 24 patients, most of whom were smokers and consumed alcoholic beverages daily, were analyzed for mutations in exons 5โ8 of the __p53__ tumor suppressor gene. Mutations were identified by polymerase chain reaction amplification and direct sequencing in 12 of 24
