Allelic loss at chromosome band 8p21.3‐p22 is associated with progression of hepatocellular carcinoma
1 Jul 1993
Abstract excerpt
Human hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC) frequently show loss of heterozygosity at loci on the short arm of chromosome 8. To define a region on 8p commonly deleted in HCC, we used 20 restriction fragment length polymorphism markers to carry out detailed deletion mapping in 142 HCC. Of the 124 informative cases, 56 (45%) showed allelic losses in tumors. While more than half of them had lost alleles at every locus on...
