Abstract excerpt

The genetic alterations leading to esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) are gradually being discovered. A wide variety of genes have been associated with ESCC development as well as tumor progression. Transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) is a multifunctional cytokine; it promotes tumor growth and metastasis in later stages of of cancer development. Variations in the DNA sequence in the TGF-beta1 gene...
