We investigated 24 hepatocellular carcinomas in Japan to find loss of heterozygosity with 15 polymorphic DNA markers that detect allelic losses at specific chromosome loci. Loss of heterozygosity on chromosomes lOq, 17p and 22q was detected in 3 of 12 (26%), 9 of 21 (43%) and 5 of 15 (33%) informati

## Abstract To identify the putative common deleted region on the long arm of chromosome 22 in pheochromocytoma, restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis was performed in 17 pheochromocytomas. All cases were heterozygous for at least one of the eight marker loci on 22q. Loss of heterozygos
The analysis of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in tumours can be a powerful tool for mapping the sites of tumour suppressor genes in the human genome. A panel of breast cancer patients was assembled as pairs of tumour and lymphocyte DNA samples and LOH studies carried out by Southern hybridisation wit
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
