[Clinical applications of molecular diagnosis of retinoblastoma ain 15 families].

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: In 40% retinoblastoma (Rb) results from a hereditary mutation of the Rb susceptibility gene (RB1). In this study, we tested the usefulness of intragenic DNA analysis for ophthalmologic follow-up in affected families. METHODS: Molecular analysis was performed on 103 DNA samples of 15 Rb families. We used 7 intragenic polymorphic markers and one within the ESD gene for mutation linkage analysis. FINDINGS:...
