  1. Abstract:

    Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is a malignancy that is prevalent among populations from Southeast Asia. Epidemiological studies indicate that genetic predisposition, Epstein-Barr virus, and environmental conditions may play a role in determining incidence. Molecular studies have implicated a tumor suppressor gene(s) on the short arm of chromosome 3. In this study we provide functional evidence, via monochromosome transfer, for a tumor suppressor gene(s) activity in chromosome 3p21.3. [References: 46]
