Abstract excerpt
Alterations of the short arm of chromosome 1 are recurrently found in cytogenetic analysis of malignant gliomas, and deletions of 1p36-p32 region characterize at least the higher-grade tumors, glioblastoma multiforme. Molecular analysis of tumor-derived and normal genomic DNA from 57 cases of gliomas, using a panel of chromosome 1-specific DNA probes showed LOH in 16 tumors. Allelic losses on 1p were primarily...
