## Abstract Despite the steadily increasing number of patients suffering from squamousβcell carcinomas of the oropharyngeal region, little is known about the molecular steps involved in the induction of these neoplasms. We investigated oropharyngeal cancers from 38 patients for mutations in the __p
In head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC), metastasis to cervical lymph nodes is a major determinant of patient outcome. To detect metastases, we used the MET oncogene as marker, which encodes the receptor for hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor, mediating epithelial cell motility and in
Abnormalities in the p53 gene were studied in a series of cell lines of human squamous-cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) and in tumor tissues. Restriction-fragment-length polymorphism (RFLP), quantitative hybridization and immunochemical analysis of mutant p53 proteins were combined to det
