Abstract excerpt
We have analysed the loss of heterozygosity (LOH) on chromosome bands 16q22-q24 in 24 primary gastric cancer tissues and found three regions of frequent allelic loss (16q22, 16q24.1-q24.3 and 16q24.3). The region for the most frequent allelic loss (63%) was in 16q24.1-q24.3. LOH of this region had no relationship with histological subtype, but a significant association between LOH and microscopic lymphangial...
