## Abstract The retinoblastoma protein‐interacting zinc finger gene, __RIZ1__ (GenBank accession number U17838), is involved in chromatin‐mediated gene expression and is also a target for frameshift mutation in microsatellite‐unstable cancers. Methylation of the __RIZ1__ promoter CpG island has bee

## Abstract Cell adhesion molecule 1 (CADM1/TSLC1), a putative tumor suppressor involving in cell adhesion, proliferation and apoptosis, is frequently inactivated in several carcinomas due to promoter hypermethylation. But alterations of CADM1/TSLC1 in colorectal carcinogenesis and clinical signifi
## Abstract We previously obtained gene expression profiles of 8 matched papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and normal tissues using DNA microarrays. To identify novel tumor suppressor genes involved in thyroid carcinogenesis, we here analyze genes showing lower expression in PTC tumors than in norm
