Rapid advances in positional cloning studies have identified most of the genes on the human Y chromosome, thereby providing resources for studying the expression of its genes in prostate cancer. Using a semiquantitative reverse transcriptionΒ±polymerase chain reaction (RTΒ±PCR) procedure, we had exami

Despite the clinical relevance of prostate cancer, few aspects regarding the molecular alterations involved in the process of prostate carcinogenesis are clearly understood. Cytogenetic and molecular genetic studies have identified specific abnormalities in prostate tumors, mainly on chromosomes 8,
Chromosome 9p has been reported to be a critical region of loss in various cancers. Our present study was designed to determine the frequency of deletions at different loci of chromosome 9p in microdissected samples of normal prostatic epithelium and carcinoma from the same patients. For this purpos
