Abstract excerpt
We have performed a comparative study of allelic imbalances in human and murine osteosarcomas to identify genetic changes critical for osteosarcomagenesis. Two adjacent but discrete loci on mouse chromosome 9 were found to show high levels of allelic imbalance in radiation-induced osteosarcomas arising in (BALB/cxCBA/CA) F1 hybrid mice. The syntenic human chromosomal regions were investigated in 42 sporadic human...
