Abstract excerpt
We have analyzed DNA obtained from 10 glioblastomas multiforme and 6 astrocytomas for microsatellite instability, using 17 different microsatellite loci dispersed over 7 different chromosomes. Six of 16 gliomas showed 1 or more microsatellite alterations in tumor DNA as compared to constitutional...
