Loss of heterozygosity studies of a variety of human tumors suggest that there are several tumor suppressor genes on chromosome arm 8p. To localize these genes more precisely. we utilized polymerase chain reaction amplification of microsatellie repeat polymorphism and examined the allelic IOU patter

## Abstract A previous study of 18 primary or metastatic prostate cancers showed loss of genetic markers on chromosome 8; 10, or 16 in more than 50% of cases [Bergerheim USR et al. (1991) Genes Chromosom Cancer 3:215โ220]. The small size and infiltrative nature of primary prostatic tumors have hind
Previous studies have suggested the involvement of tumour-suppressor genes on chromosomes 8p, 22q and 18q (DCC) in prostate cancer. The aim of this study was to further characterize these regions. We investigated 20 polymorphic regions on the 3 chromosome arms in 43 cancers and 10 cases of benign pr
## Abstract The fragile histidine triad gene (FHIT) is a candidate tumor suppressor gene at chromosome 3p14.2. Deletions in FHIT gene were reported in different types of cancer including breast cancer. In this study, we investigated the loss of heterozygosity (LOH) incidence that target FHIT genomi
## Abstract Patients who receive curative treatment for lung cancer can develop additional lung tumors that may or may not be related to the original tumor and thus require different clinical management. If a subsequent tumor has a pattern of allele loss, revealed by allelotype analysis, overlappin
