Abstract excerpt
Expression of the cellular p53 tumour-suppressor protein was examined in 78 epidermal tumours, including basal and squamous cell carcinomas, keratoacanthomas, solar keratoses, Bowen's disease and viral warts. An immunohistochemical study was employed using the antibody CM-1, raised against recombinant human p53 protein. Positive staining for p53, not detectable in normal cells because wild-type p53 is rapidly...
