Abstract excerpt
Chromosome 17q is frequently rearranged in breast cancer. Allelotyping studies have proposed the existence of at least four regions of allelic imbalance (AI). Here we present a study combining allelotyping using 19 CA repeat markers mapping in the 17q21-25 region and molecular cytogenetics (CGH and FISH). Allelotyping was undertaken on 178 pairs of cognate tumor and normal DNA in order to determine the number of...
