Abstract excerpt
The prognostic factors for esophageal cancer from the viewpoint of molecular biology are reviewed. Among several oncogenes and suppressor genes erbB, int2/hst1/Cyclin D1 and MDM2 gene amplifications are significant prognostic factors for esophageal cancer. The value of p53 mutation, and expressio...
