1 Mar 1997
Abstract excerpt
AIMS: To study the loss of heterozygosity and the presence of mutations at the p53, p16/CDKN2, and APC genes in Barrett's oesophagus, low grade dysplastic oesophageal epithelium, and adenocarcinoma of the oesophagus; to relate the presence of alterations at these genes with the progression from Barrett's oesophagus to adenocarcinoma.
