Frequent inactivation of the <i>p73</i> gene by abnormal methylation or LOH in non‐Hodgkin's lymphomas
25 Sept 2002
Abstract excerpt
p73 is a candidate tumor suppressor and imprinted gene that shares significant homology with the p53 gene. It is located on 1p36, a region frequently deleted in neuroblastoma and other tumors. To investigate the pattern of inactivation of this gene in human lymphomas, we studied 59 tumors to identify abnormal methylation in exon 1 and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at this locus. p73 was methylated in 13/50 (26%) B...
