[Towards an allotype of second generation colon cancer].

Abstract excerpt

A subset of genetic alterations distinguishes two groups of colon cancers. In the first group instability of microsatellite loci due to a defective DNA mismatch repair system is observed. The second group is characterized by recurrent losses of chromosome regions, frequently associated with hyperploidization. We have developed a technique which enables a fine description of allelic losses in this second group of...
