To examine the expression of p53 protein and gene alterations in oral epithelial lesions including epithelial dysplasias and primary squamous cell carcinomas, immunohistochemical and temperature gradient gel electrophoresis (TGGE) methods were applied to formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tissues.
Background: Immunoreactivity for p53 tumor supressor gene product is commonly found in human malignancies and some premalignant lesions, but its role in cancer development and its value as a marker of tumor biologic behavior is still unclear. Objectives: This study was undertaken to assess p53 immun
## Esophageal cancer (EC) in the Indian population presents in advanced stages with poor prognosis and warrants the identification of a non-invasive marker for early detection and better prognostic assessment. We have previously reported high prevalence of p53 protein accumulation in esophageal squ
