Abstract excerpt
The tumors of patients with lung cancers often show loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at polymorphic loci on the short arm of chromosome 3. Most examples of small-cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) cannot be examined since they are infrequently resected. Small biopsies are, however, usually available from patients with this disease. We have used the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to study lung tumor biopsies obtained by...
