To investigate the molecular mechanisms of tuberous sclerosis (TSC) histopathologic lesions, we have tested for loss of heterozygosity the two TSC loci (TSCI and TSC2) and seven tumor suppressor gene-containing regions (TP53, NFI, NF2, BRCA I, APC, VHL, and MLM) in 20 hamartomas from 18 TSC patients
Angiomyolipomas (AMLs) are renal tumors that occur both sporadically and in association with tuberous sclerosis (TSC). TSC is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by hamartomatous lesions in multiple organs. Two TSC loci are recognized TSCl on 9q34 and TSC2 on 16pl3. Loss of heterozygosity (
