Abstract excerpt
In order to detect common regions of deletion, 219 breast tumors were examined for loss of heterozygosity at several loci on chromosomes 3p, 16q, and 17 by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. Allelic deletions of loci on chromosomes 3p, 13q, 16q, and 17, and amplification of the erbB2 oncogene, were analyzed and compared with histopathological and clinical features. Common regions of deletion were...
