## Abstract Allelic loss on chromosome 13 occurs frequently in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. However, studies of the two known tumor suppressor genes located on 13q, __RB1__ and __BRCA2__, have shown few mutations, suggesting that other genes are likely to be involved in the development of th

Several lines of evidence suggest that the progression of head-and-neck squamous-cell carcinoma (HNSCC) involves inactivation of at least one and possibly several tumorsuppressor genes on the long arm of chromosome 13. The fact that neither Rb1 nor BRCA2 appears to be inactivated in the majority of
Roentgenographically occult bronchogenic squamous cell carcinomas are early lung cancers that localize mainly within the bronchial wall and are thought to be a good model for elucidating chromosomal alterations during lung cancer progression. In this study, we analyzed allelic losses on chromosome r
The tumor suppressor gene BRCA1 on chromosome 17q21 has been characterized and shown to be mutated in patients with familial breast and ovarian cancer. Several studies examined the relatives of women with breast cancer and noted an association with ovarian and prostate cancer. This study investigate
## Abstract Deletion of the short arm of chromosome 3 is a common event in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), suggesting that one or more tumor suppressor genes at 3p are involved in this cancer. __DLEC1__, Deleted in Lung and Esophageal Cancer 1, located at 3p22.2, was recently identified as a candid
