## Abstract The significance of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of chromosome 9 as an early event in human bladder tumors has been demonstrated by several studies. We have studied LOH of the ABO gene locus at 9q34.2 by means of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) genotyping of tumor preparations and leuko
The novel approach of blunt-end single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) has been applied in the analysis of urine samples from bladder-cancer patients for detecting loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of 3 polymorphic markers in the p53 gene. Of the 28 urine samples examined by SSCP analysis of blun
