Abstract excerpt
Karyotypic and molecular data indicate that genetic events involving the chromosome region 10q22-10qter may be related to tumorigenesis in malignant melanoma. To test this we analyzed 10 polymorphic microsatellite repeats in the region 10q22-qter, using a polymerase chain reaction-based assay for loss of heterozygosity and DNA isolated from normal and tumor tissue from 26 individuals with malignant melanoma. The...
