We investigated 24 hepatocellular carcinomas in Japan to find loss of heterozygosity with 15 polymorphic DNA markers that detect allelic losses at specific chromosome loci. Loss of heterozygosity on chromosomes lOq, 17p and 22q was detected in 3 of 12 (26%), 9 of 21 (43%) and 5 of 15 (33%) informati

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common malignancy worldwide and highly associated with chronic virus-B or -C infection and cirrhosis. Molecular studies have shown high frequency of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in some specific chromosome regions, but LOH on chromosome 9 in HCC has not been thoro
Genetic changes, in particular the loss o f heterozygosity (LOH) and the presence of c-Ha-ras codon 61 point mutations, were investigated in diethylnitrosamine-induced hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) in C3H/MSM F, mice. (MSM are wild mice.) LOH analysis of 48 primary tumors with microsatellite prob
Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) was examined at 27 loci on chromosomes 3p, 6q, I Ip, 13q. 17 and X in 42 human ovarian tumors. LOH was detected in I 2 of 26 (46%) and 5 of I 2 (42%) informative cases at 2 chromosome 13q loci, D13S32 and D I3534 respectively. On chromosome Xp, tumor-specific allele loss
## Abstract Frequent loss of heterozygosity (LOH) on both arms of chromosome 17 has been described in ovarian carcinoma (OC) by a number of groups, and the recent fine mapping of an inherited breastβovarian cancer gene (__brc__Al) to a small region at 17q 12β21 has focused interest on this area. We
