## Abstract Recently, we analysed the 8p11‐12 genomic region for copy number and gene expression changes in a panel of human breast cancer cell lines and primary specimens. We found that __SFRP1__ (Secreted frizzled related protein 1) is frequently under expressed even in breast tumours with copy n

## Abstract Aberrant DNA methylation is associated with many types of human cancers. To identify genes silenced in human colorectal cancers, we performed a microarray analysis for genes whose expression was induced by treatment of HCT116 human colon cancer cells with a demethylating agent, 5‐aza‐2′

## Abstract Secreted frizzled‐related protein 2 (__sFRP2__) is a negative modulator of the Wingless‐type (Wnt) signaling pathway, and shown to be inactivated in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). However, the molecular mechanism of silencing of __sFRP2__ is not fully understood. Our study was designed to

The p16 INK4A gene, which encodes the cell-cycle regulatory protein cyclin-dependent kinase 4 inhibitor, is a putative tumor-suppressor gene. We examined p16 gene alterations in 30 primary ovarian cancers and 11 ovarian cancer cell lines. Five of the primary cancers (16.7%) had lost both p16 INK4A g

## Abstract __ZAC__ is a paternally expressed, imprinted gene located on chromosome 6q24, within a region known to harbor a tumor suppressor gene for several types of neoplasia, including human ovarian cancer (HOC). We have failed to identify genetic mutations in the __ZAC__ gene in tumor material.
