Abstract excerpt
Deletions of tumour-suppressor genes can be detected by loss of heterozygosity (LOH) studies, which were performed on 23 cases of adenocarcinoma of the oesophagus, using 120 microsatellite primers covering all non-acrocentric autosomal chromosome arms. The chromosomal arms most frequently demonst...
