Abstract excerpt
The frequencies of mutations in the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC). p53, and p16 (MTS1; multiple tumor suppressor 1/CDK4I; cyclin-dependent kinase 4 inhibitor) tumor suppressor genes were investigated in 23 oral squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs). Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at the retinoblastoma...
