The phosphatase and tensin homologue (PTEN) gene is considered to be a tumour-suppressor gene in various types of cancer, colorectal carcinoma among them. According to the 'two-hit' tumour-suppressor gene concept, inactivation occurs by any combination of the following three pathogenetic processes: mutation, loss of one allele [i.e. loss of heterozygosity (LOH)] or promoter methylation. To dete...
Abstract Frequent loss of heterozygosity (LOH) on the short arm human chromosome 3 (3p) region has been found in pancreatic cancer (PC), which suggests likely presence tumor suppressor genes this region. However, functional significance LOH development PC not clearly defined. The telomerase reverse transcriptase gene ( hTERT) contributes to unlimited proliferative and tumorigenicity malignant t...
Allelic loss of tumor suppressor genes on chromosome 17p has been implicated in the progression of breast cancer. This is in principle detectable by fluorescence in situ hybridization if the loss occurs by deletion. In order to determine if detectable deletions occur in primary breast cancer, we used dual-color hybridization with chromosome 17 pericentromeric and region-specific DNA probes to s...
OBJECTIVE Transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) loss causes human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I downregulation which is frequently found in cervical carcinomas and their precursors. HLA class I molecules activate T-cells by antigen presentation and are therefore essential for immunological surveillance. To add to the hitherto limited knowledge of molecular mechanisms underlying...
We performed a genome-wide scan for loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in 22 intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) cases using 168 polymorphic microsatellite markers throughout all of the human chromosomes and 48 markers of which LOH is reportedly characteristic of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Markers with LOH in more than 30% of informative cases were observed at 21 loci. Among these, eight marke...
We have prospectively analyzed Wilms' tumors from 232 patients registered on the National Wilms' Tumor Study for loss of heterozygosity (LOH) on chromosomes 11p, 16q, and 1p. These chromosomal aberrations were found in 70 (33%), 35 (17%), and 21 (12%) of the informative cases, respectively. LOH for two of these regions occurred in only 25 cases, and only one tumor harbored LOH at all three site...
The retinoblastoma (RB) tumour suppressor gene is implicated in the development of several malignancies including osteosarcoma. Recent studies postulated its loss of heterozygosity (LOH) to be a poor prognostic factor at diagnosis of osteosarcoma (OS). It remains unclear whether LOH of the RB gene is suitable as a prognostic factor at diagnosis in patients with osteosarcoma. In this study we ai...
Background: Survival at the intermediate stage of colorectal cancer (CRC) is less predictable than in the early and advanced stages. Several genetic markers possibly involved in growth and progression of CRC can be used for prognosis. Aims: This study investigated the proportion of allelic loss (loss of heterozygosity (LOH)) at the BRCA1 locus in sporadic CRC and its value in patient prognosis....

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is one of the most common fatal carcinomas worldwide and has some of the most malignant characteristics among gastrointestinal tumors. Although a high frequency of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) for various genes has been observed in esophageal SCCs, these findings do not provide any information regarding the genetic pathways that may underlie the developm...
