Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: We analyzed loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in 54 primary neuroblastomas (NBs) using 12 microsatellite markers on 14q32, and found that 31% (17/54) NBs showed LOH. PROCEDURE: The smallest region of overlap (SRO) was identified between D14S62 and D14S987. RESULTS: There was no statistical correlation between LOH and any clinicopathologic features, including age, stage, amplification of MYCN, and ploidy. A...
