Abstract excerpt

Prostate cancer is the most common malignancy diagnosed in men in the US. Genetic susceptibility to prostate cancer has been well documented. A region at chromosome 20q13 (HPC20) has been reported to be linked to a prostate cancer susceptibility gene. To confirm this finding, we genotyped 16 markers spanning approximately 95 cM on chromosome 20 in 159 hereditary prostate cancer (HPC) families. Positive (but not...
