Abstract excerpt
To investigate the roles of allelic loss in the development of urothelial cancer, loss of heterozygosity was examined on 7 chromosomal arms in 49 cases of urothelial cancer of various grades and stages. Loss of heterozygosity was found in alleles in order of frequency as follows: 9q (21/38, 55%),...
