## Abstract Management of oral cancer by radiotherapy has witnessed promising advances in the past few years, with patient‐tailored radio fractionation regimens. Different fractionation schedules, conventional and altered regimes, have been used in curative radiotherapy. Although contribution of bi
Cyclin-dependent kinillre-4 inhibitor genes (INK4) regulate the cell cycle and are candidate tumor-suppressor genes. To determine if alterations in the coding regions of the p18 and p l 9 genes, which are novel members of the INK4 family and if they correlate with the development of human cancer, 10
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Cyclin D1 (__CCND1__) and __p16__ alterations have been detected in oral squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs), suggesting that abnormalities of these genes may play an important role in the genesis or progression of oral SCCs and serve as independent prognostic indicators. The
The tumor suppressor gene CDKN2 (p16/MTS1) resides on chromosome 9p21 and encodes a 16 kDa inhibitor of the cyclin-dependent kinases. Inactivation of CDKN2 by homozygous deletion, point mutation, and recently described aberrant methylation in the 5' promoter region may increase progression through t
