Loss of Heterozygosity Analysis and DNA Copy Number Measurement on 8p in Bladder Cancer Reveals Two Mechanisms of Allelic Loss
1 Jan 2005
Abstract excerpt
Many epithelial tumors show deletion of the short arm of chromosome 8 that is related to aggressive disease or adverse prognosis. In undissected samples of urothelial cell carcinoma of the bladder, at least two regions of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) were identified previously within a small region of 8p11-p12. LOH analysis on a panel of pure tumor DNA samples confirmed this and identified tumors with allelic...
