Abstract
Somatic mutations of von Hippel Lindau (VHL) tumor-suppressor gene have been identified in kidney cancers from North America and Japan. We studied VHL gene mutation in 31 kidney tumors from France. Of these tumors, 45% (14/31) displayed mutations, 60% of which occurred at A:T base pairs. The frequency and the spectrum of mutations identified in kidney tumors from Europe were similar to those reported for tumors from other geographical locations.Entities:
