Cytogenetic and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) studies have long indicated the presence of a tumor suppressor gene (TSG) on 9p involved in the development of melanoma. Although LOH at 9p has been reported in approximately 60% of melanoma tumors, only 5-10% of these tumors have been shown to carry CDKN2A mutations, raising the possibility that another TSG involved in melanoma maps to chromosome 9p...
Genomic clones of nm23-H1 and -H2 were isolated. The nm23-H1 and -H2 genes were located in a tandem array 4 kilobases apart. Each genome contained 5 exons and most of the splicing sites in the exon-intron junctions of two isotypes were essentially identical. A probe derived from intron 4 of nm23-H1 was used to examine the loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in primary colorectal carcinomas. Twenty-nin...
MOTIVATION Copy number variations (CNV) include net gains or losses of part or whole chromosomal regions. They differ from copy neutral loss of heterozygosity (cn-LOH) events which do not induce any net change in the copy number and are often associated with uniparental disomy. These phenomena have long been reported to be associated with diseases and particularly in cancer. Losses/gains of gen...
The significance of the retinoblastoma gene (RB) in the development of human breast cancer remains unclear. In the present study, loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in RB was found in 26% of 90 informative primary breast tumors and was correlated to DNA nondiploidy, a high S-phase fraction, and LOH at chromosome 17p13.3. However, allele loss was not associated with loss of RB protein (pRB) expression...
To determine whether loss of heterozygosity (LOH) could be a useful diagnostic test for lung cancer, we evaluated LOH in cells obtained from bronchial brushings. Cells from radiographically normal and abnormal lungs were obtained from 55 patients undergoing diagnostic bronchoscopy. Among 38 patients with lung cancer, LOH was present in at least one chromosomal locus in 79%, whereas cytology was...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS 17p (TP53) loss of heterozygosity (LOH) has been reported to be predictive of progression from Barrett's esophagus to esophageal adenocarcinoma, but the mechanism by which TP53 LOH develops is unknown. It could be (a) DNA deletion, (b) LOH without copy number change, or (c) tetraploidy followed by genetic loss. If an alternative biomarker assay, such as fluorescence in situ ...
BRCA1, a breast-ovarian cancer susceptibility gene which has been localized to 17q21, appears to be a tumor suppressor gene based on evidence from loss of heterozygosity (LOH) studies. We analyzed 14 ovarian and breast tumors from BRCA1 carriers and 1 sporadic breast tumor from 3 kindreds for 17q21 LOH. Thirteen of the 14 tumors from gene carriers exhibited LOH of the wild-type allele. Tumors f...
We have shown previously that a wide range of mutagenic carcinogens are capable of inducing loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at the endogenous Aprt locus in mouse splenic lymphocytes. To investigate whether LOH might be caused by a single common mechanism, we set out to determine the extent of LOH by microsatellite analysis along (the Aprt gene containing) mouse chromosome 8. Aprt+/- hybrid B6C3F1 ...
Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was used to examine gains and losses in 18 meningioma tumors that had been previously analyzed for loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at 22q12. Partial or complete losses were seen by CGH in only 9 of 18 cases on chromosome 22. This compares with 11 of 18 losses of single or more loci by LOH. The discrepancy in these results in probably explained by the increas...
