Abstract excerpt
We investigated TP53 mutation patterns in cancers of the esophagus and cardia of patients coming from Lower Normandy, a region situated in the highest incidence area in Europe. To screen tumor samples, we first used denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE), a well-characterized technique which constituted our reference method. Then the results were compared with those obtained by denaturing high performance...
