Abstract excerpt
Neuroblastoma is a heterogeneous tumour with a variety of clinical phenotypes, ranging from a localised tumour with excellent outcome (stage 1) to a metastatic, usually fatal malignancy (stage 4). In order to investigate the genetic relationship between these tumour subtypes, a loss of heterozygosity (LOH) analysis was carried out. Composite LOH allelotypes incorporating data from 96 loci on 5 chromosomes (1p,...
