“…For example, a long‐term follow‐up study of patients with oesophageal dysplasia showed that 30% of the cases progressed to squamous cell carcinoma over a follow‐up period of 2.5– 6.5 years 3 . Possible molecular bases of this process have been examined and several abnormalities have been described in dysplasia, including genetic instability, DNA aneuploidy, loss of heterozygosity, mutation of the tumour suppressor gene p53 , and a high proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) index 4–10 . However, much remains to be clarified about the dysplasia–carcinoma sequence of the oesophagus.…”

“…Expression of p53 has been studied immunohistochemically in a number of neoplasms [6,17,27,39,46,48] where a good correlation between p53 protein expression and tumour stage has been shown. These reports comprise observations obtained in colorectal, head and neck, lung, urinary bladder, gastric, oesophageal and ovarian cancers [18,26,35,41,48,52].…”
