## Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at the site of the retinoblastoma ( R B I ) gene, at 13q14, has been shown to occur in a high proportion of ovarian cancer patients. Based on this, RB I gene inactivation was studied in primary tumor cells from I 5 patients with ovarian cancer. Structural changes as

## Abstract This study reports on the evaluation of the Wilms tumor suppressor gene __WT1__ in 14 endometrial carcinomas. Despite the fact that several endometrial carcinomas were shown to express __WT1__, we were unable to demonstrate mutations in the __MT1__ zinc finger region, suggesting that __
The loss o r mutational inactivation of the RBI tumor suppressor gene has been implicated in the development of a diverse group of human malignancies. However, the contribution of the RBI gene alteration t o human prostatic carcinogenesis has been poorly understood. Thus far, deletion of the promote
Recent studies have suggested that abnormalities in the adenomatous polyposis coli gene (AP C gene) are associated with the development not only of familial adenomatous polyposis coli (FAP) but also of cancers in digestive organs. In order to elucidate whether abnormalities of the APC gene could con
