The mutation and deletion of the multiple tumor suppressor genes, including p53, Rb, APC and MCC in the same tissue of humanesophageal cancer (EC) and adjacent non-tumor were analysed by PCR amplification and direct sequencing. In 10 cases of EC 6 were found mutations of p53 gene, 5 were found ab...
