Loss of heterozygosity for chromosome 14q in neuroblastoma
1 Jan 2001
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Neuroblastoma is a genetically heterogeneous disease, with subsets of tumors demonstrating rearrangements of several genomic regions. Preliminary studies from several groups have identified loss of heterozygosity (LOH) for the long arm of chromosome 14 (14q) in 20-25% of primary neuroblastomas. PROCEDURE: To determine precisely the frequency and extent of 14q deletions, we performed LOH analysis for a...
