Molecular Analysis of Chromosome 16q Regions in Dermal Analogue Tumors of Salivary Glands
1 Jun 2002
Abstract excerpt
Dermal analogue tumor, an uncommon subtype of basal cell monomorphic adenoma of the parotid gland, has a remarkable clinical and histologic resemblance to dermal cylindroma. Molecular studies of familial and sporadic cylindromas have shown frequent alterations at chromosome 16q12-13 that have recently been found to house the cylindromatosis gene (CYLD). To determine the involvement of the chromosome 16q12-13...
