:Objective To study the relationship between the deletion and mutation of p16 gene and clinicopatho -logic manifestations of human non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC). Methods Silver staining PCR-SSCP method of control amount of template DNA was used to detect exon 2 of p16 gene in human NSCLC tissue specimens. Results The deletion of p16 gene was identified in 13 out of 40 specimens. Of the 40 specimens
3 showed a variant band indicative of the mutation. There was significant correlation between the frequency of the deletion and mutation(40%) and clinicopathologic stage(P<0.05). Conclusion The deletion and mutation of p16 gene may play an important role in carcinogenesis
