Previous studies have suggested the involvement of tumour-suppressor genes on chromosomes 8p, 22q and 18q (DCC) in prostate cancer. The aim of this study was to further characterize these regions. We investigated 20 polymorphic regions on the 3 chromosome arms in 43 cancers and 10 cases of benign pr
Breast-carcinoma development presumably results from multiple mutational events in tumor-associated genes. Certain results indicate that some tumor-suppressor genes may combine their pathogenetic potential to synergistically promote tumor growth. In an effort to identify such mechanisms in breast tu
Loss of heterozygosity (LOH, allele loss) occurs frequently on the long arm of chromosome 11 in breast cancer. Seventy-one paired tumourlnormal DNA samples from breast cancer patients under 50 years old were studied for allele loss at four microsatellite loci on llq: DlIS29 (11q23.3), NCAM(llq22923)
