## Background: We analyzed loss of heterozygosity (loh) in 54 primary neuroblastomas (nbs) using 12 microsatellite markers on 14q32, and found that 31% (17/54) nbs showed loh. ## Procedure: The smallest region of overlap (sro) was identified between d14s62 and d14s987. ## Results: There was no

Chromosome 13 is one of the most frequently altered chromosomes in cancer, including carcinoma of the prostate. Two known tumor suppressor genes, RB1 and BRCA2, map to chromosome 13; however, recent reports suggest that unknown genes on 13q are more likely to be involved in the development of prosta
## Abstract Deletion of the long arm of chromosome 6 (6q) frequently occurs in many neoplasms, including carcinomas of the prostate and breast and melanoma, suggesting the location of a tumorβsuppressor gene or genes at 6q. At present, however, the region of deletion has not been well defined, and
