Also cytoplasmic expression of p53 protein has been reported to affect survival in some cancers. Furthermore, an association between p53 and \u03b2\u2010catenin expression has been demonstrated. We studied the expression of p53 in a large group of oropharyngeal and hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas and its relation to catenin expression, histologic differentiation, clinical data, and prognosis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Primary tumors for analyses were obtained from 123 patients diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma of the oropharynx or hypopharynx between 1975 and 1998 in Eastern Finland. Immunohistochemistry was used to evaluate the expression of p53 as well as \u03b1\u2010, \u03b2\u2010, and \u03b3\u2010catenins.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      In the primary tumors (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 123), the nuclear p53 expression index was low in 42 (34%), intermediate in 38 (31%), and high in 43 (35%) cases.
