In order to investigate the genomic instability associated with prostate cancer, 36 microsatellite marker loci on chro- mosomes 1p, 3p, 5q, 8p, 8q, 9p, 11q and13q were analyzed using microdissected samples from prostate cancer and adjoining microscopically normal tissues from the same slide. DNA was

## BACKGROUND. It is generally known that replication errors (RERs) at microsatellite loci detected in human malignancies reflect a genetic instability that is caused by abnormalities of DNA mismatch repair system and underlie human carcinogenesis. The authors analyzed RERs in precancerous lesions
## Background: Alterations of dna methylation have been reported in many human cancers. in prostatic carcinoma, hypermethylation of the gst p gene promoter and an overall decrease in methylcytosine content have been reported. the aim of the present study was to investigate the frequency and extent
