Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Tumor suppressor genes are important in the development of head and neck cancer. Using microsatellite markers that map close to the region 3p24-pter, we determined the frequency of allele loss close to this site with a view to narrowing the search for a putative tumor suppressor gene involved in the development of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, which may facilitate future positional...
