Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at chromosome 8p is associated with the progression of conventional (non-papillary) renal cell carcinomas (RCC). To determine the tumor suppressor gene locus, we carried out a deletion mapping of chromosome 8p at 10 microsatellite loci in 96 RCCs. LOH occurred in 32% of
Chromosome 9p deletions identify an aggressive phenotype of clear cell renal cell carcinoma

## Abstract HLA class I loss or downregulation is a widespread mechanism used by tumor cells to avoid tumor recognition by cytotoxic T lymphocytes favoring tumor immune escape. Multiple molecular mechanisms are responsible for these altered HLA class I tumor phenotypes. It has been described in dif
## BACKGROUND. In the treatment of small renal cell carcinoma (RCC), there is controversy between radical and nephron-sparing surgical treatment because of the risk of tumor multifocality. The biologic behavior of multifocal RCC compared with that of unifocal RCC is not well investigated, and the
Papillary renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) have characteristic clinical and morphological features that separate them from the more common clear cell RCCs. The details of the molecular changes in papillary RCC progression are not well understood. In this study, four highly polymorphic microsatellite mar
Inactivation of tumour suppressor gene(s) (TSGs) on 3p appears to be a critical event in the pathogenesis of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CC-RCC). Analysis of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in sporadic RCC samples has implicated roles for TSGs in three specific regions of 3p in RCC development: (1
In this study, 105 non-papillary renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) have been examined for allelic loss at the chromosome 8p12-21.1, 9p21, and 14q24.2-qter regions, each by two highly polymorphic microsatellites. Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) was detected at both chromosome 8p and 9p in 33 per cent of the
