High-density marker analysis of 11p15.5 in non-small cell lung carcinomas reveals allelic deletion of one shared and one distinct region when compared to breast carcinomas.

Abstract excerpt

The presence of a non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC)-related gene or genes on chromosome band 11p15.5 is of particular interest, given the specific loss of heterozygosity (LOH) measured in this region for lung as well as many other pediatric and adult neoplasms. We have undertaken high-density polymorphic marker analysis in 30 matched normal and NSCLC tumor samples using 11 PCR-based polymorphic markers...
