✦ Synopsis


Clusters of selected cancer sites mortality, regarding Italy and the Marche region, were compared. Very similar associations were found both in males and in females, in particular between the alcohol-tobacco-related sites. Many clusters agree with the international literature, while others could constitute a starting point for formulating new hypotheses.

Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of the long arm of chromosome 7 occurs frequently in many types of primary cancers. We analyzed 22 primary ovarian cancers for LOH of chromosome arm 7q using a set of 16 microsatellite markers in order to determine the location of a putative tumor suppressor gene (TSG).
