## 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

Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) from the short arm of chromosome 8 is frequent in a variety of malignancies, suggesting the presence of a tumor suppressor gene in this region. Previous studies suggested that this deletion may correlate with higher clinicopathologic stages in colorectal cancer, but othe
## Abstract The pathogenesis of sporadic insulinomas is not clear, and there are no reliable genetic determinants that are useful to distinguish malignant and benign forms of this tumor. It was reported that 1q LOH might contribute to pathogenesis in gastrinomas and was correlated with tumor progre
In this study, 105 non-papillary renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) have been examined for allelic loss at the chromosome 8p12-21.1, 9p21, and 14q24.2-qter regions, each by two highly polymorphic microsatellites. Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) was detected at both chromosome 8p and 9p in 33 per cent of the
## Abstract Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) on the long arm of chromosome 7 was examined using 5 polymorphic marker probes on 98 gastric carcinomas to elucidate a novel locus for development and progression of the tumors. Twentyβsix (32%) of 82 informative cases showed LOH on 7q on at least one locus
Human hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC) frequently show loss of heterozygosity at loci on the short arm of chromosome 8. To define a region on 8p commonly deleted in HCC, we used 20 restriction fragment length polymorphism markers t o carry out detailed deletion mapping in 142 HCC. Of the I24 informat
