Abstract excerpt
We have used polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of tandem repeats to study the pattern of allelic loss on chromosome 7q31 in invasive epithelial ovarian carcinomas and borderline ovarian tumors. Using 13 primer sets spanning loci from 7q31 to 7q32, 16 borderline and 54 invasive ovarian...
