PURPOSE Gene copy number alteration (CNA) is common in malignant melanoma and is associated with tumor development and progression. The concordance between molecular cytogenetic techniques used to determine CNA has not been evaluated on a large set of loci in malignant melanoma. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN A panel of 16 locus-specific fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) probes located on eight ...
The p21 region of human chromosome 9 is thought to contain a gene (MLM) involved in genetic susceptibility to melanoma and a gene or genes that influence progression of certain other tumors. Genomic clones that span a large region in 9p21 surrounding the presumptive tumor suppressor gene(s) have been isolated. A set of sequence-tagged sites in this region has been developed. By using these mark...
PURPOSE Homozygous deletions at chromosome region 9p21 targeting the CDKN2A gene have been reported as a common cytogenetic abnormality in mesothelioma. MTAP, a gene approximately 100-kb telomeric to CDKN2A, encodes methylthioadenosine phosphorylase, an enzyme essential in the salvage of cellular adenine and methionine, and its codeletion with CDKN2A has been reported in other tumors. The aim o...
OBJECTIVE Recent studies have identified a major locus for risk for coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction on chromosome 9p21.3. Stroke, in particular, ischemic stroke caused by atherosclerotic disease, shares common mechanisms with myocardial infarction. We investigated whether the 9p21 region contributes to ischemic stroke risk. METHODS In an initial screen, 15 single nucleotide ...
Genetic alterations at critical chromosome loci have been shown to be predictors of the progression of oral premalignancy-to-invasive cancer. We obtained a unique group of oral biopsies, initially collected during a prospective study designed to test the ability of OraTest (toluidine blue), to identify recurrent oral neoplastic lesions in patients with definite therapy for head and neck or uppe...
Human melanoma cell lines and tumor tissue from familial and sporadic melanomas have frequent, nonrandom chromosomal breaks and deletions on chromosome 9p21, a region that includes the tumor suppressor gene CDKN2A/p16INK4A. Germ-line mutations within this gene have been observed in some familial melanoma kindreds, but somatic mutation in sporadic primary melanoma is infrequent. Thirty-nine arch...
BACKGROUND Myocardial infarction (MI) is a serious complication of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). Previous studies have identified genetic variants on chromosome 9p21 and 6p24 that are associated with CAD, but further studies need to be conducted to investigate whether these genetic variants are associated with the pathogenesis of MI. We therefore performed this study to assess the association ...
Trichoepithelioma is an uncommon, benign hamartomatous tumor of the pilosebaceous follicle. Presenting as multiple papules and nodules on face and neck, they pose a significant cosmetic problem in affected individuals. Familial involvement of this dermatosis occurs in an autosomal dominant pattern, the locus being located on chromosome 9p21, which causes multiple facial lesions in family member...
