In order to identify relevant genetic lesions in gastric carcinoma, we searched for tumor suppressor gene inactivation and K-ras gene mutations by analyzing tumor and control DNAs from 34 patients. These were from an epidemiologically defined area of Italy characterized by one of the world's highest
To date, several tumor-suppressor genes responsible for the tumorigenesis of colorectal cancer have been identified. However, studies of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) have suggested several chromosomal regions which may contain additional tumor-suppressor genes for colorectal cancer. To determine the
Gastric cancers are rarely diagnosed before the age of 40 years and the incidence reaches a peak during the 7th decade in the general population. A molecular mechanism of early tumor onset may be determined by comparing microsatellite instability (MSI), indicative of error-prone mismatch repair, and
## Abstract Sixty DNA samples from breast carcinoma (BC) patients were analyzed by Southern blot to examine certain oncogene and antiβoncogene alterations. Amplification of the HERβ2 oncogene was detected in 15 tumours (25%), cβmyc in 2 (3%) only and HERβ1 in none. Distribution of Hrasβ1 oncogene a
