Sixty-three non-small cell lung carcinomas (NSCLCs) and 20 small cell lung carcinomas (SCLct) were examined for loss of heterozygosity (LOH) on chromosome 2. Fifteen highly polymorphic dinucleotide markers spanning both the short and long arms of chromosome 2 were selected for a polymerase chain rea

Linkage studies have indicated that a gene on chromosome arm 17q. designated BRCA I , confers susceptibility t o familial breast and ovarian cancer. To investigate the possible involvement of the BRCA I gene in sporadic breast cancer we have analysed loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in a panel of 100 sp
We used I0 restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) probes spanning the length of the short arm of chromosome 3 (3p) t o map deletion sites in human lung cancer. Two approaches were used. I) When a patient's tumor and normal tissue were available, loci with allelic heterozygosity in the norma
Several somatic genetic alterations have been described in non-small-cell lung carcinomas (NSCLC). Recurrent chromosomal deletions have suggested the presence of tumor-suppressor genes specifically involved in lung carcinogenesis. For one of these, 2 non-overlapping regions have been proposed on the
