| pubmed-article:7540752 | pubmed:abstractText | p53 protein has been reported as frequently overexpressed in esophageal and gastric carcinomas. However, the correlation between p53 protein expression and clinico-pathological features of the tumors is debated in this heterogeneous group of cancers. The aim of this study was to establish the prevalence of p53 protein overexpression in a series of resected esophageal squamous carcinomas (n = 78), adenocarcinomas developed on Barrett's esophagus (n = 20), adenocarcinomas of the cardia (n = 36), and adenocarcinomas of the antrum (n = 30), and to correlate this expression with the clinico-pathological and flow-cytometric characteristics of the tumors. | lld:pubmed |
