Abstract excerpt
Genomic deletions involving chromosome 4 have recently been implicated in several human cancers. To identify and characterize genetic events associated with the development of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), a fine mapping of allelic losses associated with chromosome 4 was performed on DNA isolated from 27 matched primary tumor specimens and normal tissues. Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of at least...
