To investigate p53 alterations in esophageal squamous-cell carcinomas of patients in the high-risk area of southern Thailand, 72 paraffin-embedded samples were analyzed immunohistochemically for p53 protein expression and 16 frozen samples for p53 mutational status. Forty-two of the 72 tumors (58.3%
## Abstract ## Background Survivin, an inhibitor of apoptosis, is overexpressed in cancer. It has been implicated in both prevention of apoptosis and cell cycle regulation. We investigated the distribution of antiapoptotic protein survivin in 29 oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and 16 oral prem
## 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 discordance between p53 protein overexpression and the presence of mutations in the gene has been observed in many types of tumors, including human lymphomas. To probe this finding, we have studied a large series of 94 lymphomas of different pathologic types and histologic differentiation. Analyzi
