abstract：:Recently, a novel candidate tumor suppressor gene, DPC 4/SMAD 4, has been implicated in the development of pancreatic cancers. Its location at human chromosome 18q21 prompted us to investigate this gene in a large series of primary tumors located outside the gastrointestinal tract which have been associated with loss ...
