Abstract excerpt
The von Hippel-Lindau locus on chromosome 3p is a tumor suppressor gene known to be involved in nonpapillary renal cell carcinoma. A previous loss of heterozygosity (LOH) study aimed at determining the allelotype of kidney tumors has indicated that in addition to 3p, chromosome arms 5q, 6q, 10q, 11q, 17p, and 19p may also harbor tumor suppressor genes. However, cytogenetic studies reveal that chromosomes 3p, 6q,...
