Abstract excerpt
Deletion mapping studies of primary bladder tumors have identified nonoverlapping areas of loss on each arm of chromosome 9, indicating that two distinct tumor suppressor loci are located on this chromosome. The deleted region on the p arm overlaps an area of 9p previously reported to be lost in...
