Several somatic genetic alterations have been described in non-small-cell lung carcinomas (NSCLC). Recurrent chromosomal deletions have suggested the presence of tumor-suppressor genes specifically involved in lung carcinogenesis. For one of these, 2 non-overlapping regions have been proposed on the
Frequent losses of heterozygosity observed at several chromosomal loci in primary lung cancers have indicated the existence of several tumor suppressor genes associated with this type of cancer. We have examined loss of heterozygosity on chromosomal arm 8p in 49 cases of non-small cell lung carcinom
The genetic lesions that lead to the development of small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) remain incompletely defined. To identify recurrent allelic deletions in specific chromosomal regions that could serve as markers for tumor suppressor gene (TSG) inactivation in SCLC, we performed a comprehensive all
