Abstract excerpt

To better understand the timing for presentation of allelic losses in human breast carcinogenesis, we compared the allelotypic profile of 23 in situ ductal carcinomas with that of 29 invasive ductal carcinomas. We also compared the allelotype of the invasive ductal breast carcinomas with that of...
