We have investigated the mutation of the TP53 gene in hepatoblastomas (HBLs) by using polymerase chain reaction-single strand conformation polymorphism and direct sequencing in 38 HBL tumor samples and in two HBL cell lines. We detected the TP53 gene mutation in an anaplastic hepatoblastoma cell lin

The aim of this study is to address the role of mdm-2-gene amplification in the tumorigenesis of uterine sarcomas. Differential PCR with DNA from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded specimens was employed in 12 patients with uterine sarcomas. We detected mdm-2-gene amplification in 4 out of 12 uterine
## Loss of heterozygosity (LOH ) at chromosome band 10q23 occurs frequently in a wide variety of human tumors. A recently identified candidate tumor suppressor gene, PTEN located on 10q23, is mutated in multiple advanced cancers. To explore whether PTEN is associated with human squamous cell carci
The retinoblastoma gene (RB) is a typical tumor-suppressor gene. Inactivation of RB has been shown in a variety of human cancers, including esophageal squamous-cell carcinomas. In the present study, samples of normal esophageal squamous epithelium (n ؍ 10), severe squamous-cell dysplasias (n ؍ 1
Oral squamous-cell carcinoma (SCC) is the most common neoplasm in Sri Lanka, accounting for approximately 30% of all cancers in males. Epidemiologic evidence indicates that there is an unequivocal relationship between betel chewing and oral carcinogenesis, suggesting that there may be specific genet
Human papillomavirus (HPV), in particular types 16 and 18, is positively associated with anogenital cancers and may be an important etiologic factor in their pathogenesis. The goal of our study was to investigate the role of HPV infection in the pathogenesis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ES
