## Background: Germline mutations in recessive cancer predisposition genes are uncovered by somatic genetic deletions during tumor development. analysis of genetic changes in tumor tissues from patients with an inherited predisposition may therefore highlight regions of the genome containing suscep

By means of comparative genomic hybridization (CGH), we screened 58 primary gastric cancers for changes in copy number of DNA sequences. We detected frequent losses on Ip32-33 (21%), 3p21-23 (22%), 5q14-22 (36%), 6q16 (26%), 9p21-24 (22%), 16q (21%), 17p13 (48%), 18q11-21(33%), and 19(40%). Gains we
The standard comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) protocol relies on availability of macroscopic tumor samples, which do not contain too much interfering normal cells. Recently, CGH after universal amplification of genomic DNA with degenerate oligonucleotide primed PCR (DOP-PCR) has been used to
Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was used to detect and map the regions of gain, high-level amplification, and loss of DNA sequences in 14 liposarcomas. Thirteen tumors showed DNA sequence copy number changes of one or more genomic regions (mean, six aberrationdtumor; range, 0-1 7). These abe
Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was used in a retrospective analysis of chromosomal imbalances in frozen primary tumor specimens from 14 endometrial carcinoma patients. Chromosome changes were detected in nine cases (64%), and tumor stage and grade tended to parallel the degree of genomic im
