The involvement of tumor suppressor genes in the progression of melanoma has been suggested by the frequent deletion of specific regions of the genome in melanoma. In this study, a panel of I 8 surgically removed melanomas from I 5 patients was analyzed for loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at I0 polymor
Previous karyotypic studies have indicated a possible series of non-random chromosomal events involved in progression of melanoma. We sought t o verify and augment this model of melanocyte tumorigenesis by studying allelic deletions of markers mapping t o these regions in 30 matched pairs of melanom
