Background. Colorectal cancers often show allelic loss of chromosomes 5q and 17p, regions where the tumor suppressor genes p53 and adenomatous polyposis coli are known to reside. Currently, the inactivation of tumor suppressor genes and the activation of oncogenes are considered major events involve

We recently isolated the KAI1 gene, a metastasis suppressor gene for prostate cancer, from human chromosome region 11p13-cen-containing rat prostate cancer cells. The present study was performed to further locate the region of the KAI1 gene on the short arm of chromosome 11, and to examine whether l
Alzheimer disease (AD) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease leading to global dementia. In addition to sporadic forms of AD, familial forms (FAD) have been recognized. Mutations in the amyloid precursor protein (APP) gene on chromosome (CHR) 21 have been shown to cause early-onset AD in a smal
