Loss of heterozygosity on chromosome arm 16q frequently occurs in human breast carcinomas regardless of the histological grade or type. To reveal whether the status of chromosome 16 corresponds to the histology of breast carcinomas, we examined the signal number of 16cen, 16q breakpoints and 1;16 fu
The loss of genetic material from a specific chromosome region in tumors suggests the presence of tumor-suppressor genes. Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) or allelic imbalance (Al) on the long arm of chromosome 16 is a known event in sporadic breast cancer. To locate the commonly deleted regions, and th
Chromosome I abnormalities with loss of lp36 have been investigated in 95 breast-cancer samples by means of a dualtarget fluorescence in-sku hybridization (FISH) technique using the pUC I .77 and p 1-79 probes, specific for the I q I 2 and I p36 regions, respectively. Abnormalities for one or both p
