The tumor suppressor gene BRCA1 on chromosome 17q21 has been characterized and shown to be mutated in patients with familial breast and ovarian cancer. Several studies examined the relatives of women with breast cancer and noted an association with ovarian and prostate cancer. This study investigate
## Abstract Recent studies have shown that loss of heterozygosity (LOH) on chromosome 10q is a frequent event in a number of tumour types including colorectal cancers. Because previous studies have used markers located mainly distally on chromosome 10, we have examined 114 sporadic colorectal adeno
Many tumors exhibit loss of heterozygosity (LOH) for polymorphic markers in regions of the genome that contain genes whose normal function can suppress tumor growth. Mapping of regions of LOH can help identify putative tumor suppressor loci that play a role in the pathogenesis of a disease. We evalu
