The Knudson "two-hit" hypothesis has provided the rationale for studies that aim to identify tumor-suppressor genes by mapping regions of allelic loss (loss of heterozygosity, LOH). Although LOH has been found in practically all types of tumors, very few such projects have been successful in identif
Chondrosarcomas are malignant cartilaginous tumors arising centrally in bone (central chondrosarcoma), or secondarily within the cartilaginous cap of a hereditary or sporadic exostosis (peripheral chondrosarcoma). Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) was studied by microsatellite analysis at the loci harbor
## Abstract Oligoastrocytomas (OAs) are WHO grade II or III tumors composed of a mixture of 2 neoplastic cell types morphologically resembling the cells in oligodendrogliomas and diffuse astrocytomas. Investigations on the genetic profile of OAs may yield important information for their classificat
