## Abstract Our objective was to examine prospectively the intake of vitamins A (including retinol and total vitamin A), C and E; folate; total carotene; and several individual carotenoids (Ξ±βcarotene, Ξ²βcarotene, Ξ²βcryptoxanthin and lutein/zeaxanthin) in relation to incidence of SCC of the skin in
We report the case of a 26-year-old man with von Hippel-Lindau syndrome (VHL) and two renal cell carcinomas (RCC), one of which was studied cytogenetically. Chromosomal analysis of the RCC showed a translocation that involved chromosomes 3 and 8 with subsequent loss of the derivative chromosome 8. T
## Abstract Germline mutations in the __VHL__ tumor suppressor gene cause von HippelβLindau (VHL) disease and somatic __VHL__ mutations occur in the majority of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (cRCC). To compare copy number abnormalities (CNAs) between cRCC from VHL patients and sporadic cRCC cases
## Abstract Germline mutation of the folliculin gene (BHD) at chromosome 17p11.2 is associated with the development of multiplex hamartomas of the hair follicles, chromophobe renal cell carcinomas (RCC) and renal oncocytomas (RO). We have analyzed the folliculin gene with sequencing for mutations a
