Abstract excerpt
The prognostic value of the p53 gene (TP53), the most commonly mutated gene in human cancers, has been well established for several cancer types. However, because varying frequencies of TP53 mutations have been identified in prostatic adenocarcinoma (CaP) by genetic and immunohistochemical (IHC) studies, the role of TP53 in CaP tumorigenesis is currently unresolved. These experimental discrepancies could be...
