Abstract excerpt

We have previously cloned and identified a novel esophageal cancer related gene 2 (ECRG2; GenBank Accession Number AF268198), which is down-regulated in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and involved in the induction of the apoptosis in esophageal cancer cell lines. In the present study, we have found a short tandem repeat (STR) polymorphism in the noncoding region of the exon 4 of the ECRG2 gene by using...
