Abstract excerpt
Neuroblastoma is a common childhood tumor of the sympathetic nervous system, characterized by N-myc amplification and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) for sequences on chromosomes 1p, 11q and 14q. Using restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis, the constitutional and tumor genotypes were com...
