Gene deletion of chromosome 10 in 11 tumor tissues removed from nine patients with malignant glioma (seven glioblastomas and two malignant astrocytomas) was investigated. Loss of heterozygosity was found in four of the seven (57%) cases with glioblastoma, whereas heterozygosity was preserved in two
Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at chromosomal loci has been associated with the presence of tumor suppressor genes at the deleted loci. Twenty-six clinically localized, Stage B prostate carcinomas were analyzed for LOH on chromosomes 10 and 17 using microsatellite markers. Two of 26 carcinomas showed
