Abstract excerpt
The invasion suppressor gene E-CADHERIN (CDH1) is downregulated in a large variety of human carcinomas. Up to now, mutational analysis of the CDH1 gene has been described for 325 tumors derived from only four different tissue types. A simple but sensitive mutation detection assay is needed to screen many more tumor types, possibly bearing E-cadherin inactivating mutations. For that purpose, we developed a...
