Abstract excerpt
We have previously observed loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at a single locus (del-27) on human chromosome 5p13-12 to correlate with bladder tumor progression. In this study, we examined 33 bladder tumors for their pattern of allelic loss on chromosome 5p using 7 microsatellite markers. In 14 of 15 bladder tumors with LOH at locus del-27, allelic loss was confined to chromosomal region 5p13-12. This region included...
