The tumor suppressor gene BRCA1 on chromosome 17q21 has been characterized and shown to be mutated in patients with familial breast and ovarian cancer. Several studies examined the relatives of women with breast cancer and noted an association with ovarian and prostate cancer. This study investigate
We conducted linkage analysis of 64 multiple-case families with early-onset bilateral breast cancer using DNA markers on chromosome band 1p36. Evidence against tight linkage was obtained using a dominant model for transmission (summary LOD scores at recombination fraction ϭ 0.000001 were -4.71 for D
Loss of heterozygosity on chromosome 9 has been reported in a variety of human cancers. The cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p16 gene, mapped on chromosome 9p21, is presumed to be the tumor-suppressor gene localized in this chromosome. The aim of our study was to determine, in 26 Barrett's adenocar
## BACKGROUND. The majority of colorectal carcinomas, if not all, arise from a benign adenoma. The DNA of the carcinomatous cells frequently has mutations in several genes. However, it is not exactly clear when during the neoplastic process each mutation develops. An adenoma with an area of in sit
Deletion of 17p is the most frequent abnormality observed in central nervous system (CNS) primitive neuroectodermal tumors (PNETs), implicating the presence of a tumor suppressor gene which maps to 17p. The gene for pigment epitheliumderived factor (PEDF) has been cloned and mapped to 17p13. PEDF be
