The role of the TP53 gene in the development of inherited and sporadic pheochromocytomas and medullary thyroid carcinomas (MTC) has not been clarified because of conflicting reports and limitations in the assays used to detect mutations. To determine the frequency of TP53 alterations in these tumors
In this study we investigated the incidence of mutations and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of the TP53 gene in DNA samples from paired tumor and adjacent normal tissue from 90 patients with untreated squamous-cell carcinoma of the head and neck. Evidence for TP53 mutations were demonstrated in 53% (4
