Abstract
Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at chromosome 8p is associated with the progression of conventional (non-papillary) renal cell carcinomas (RCC). To determine the tumor suppressor gene locus, we carried out a deletion mapping of chromosome 8p at 10 microsatellite loci in 96 RCCs. LOH occurred in 32% of the tumors. The smallest overlapping region of deletion at chromosome 8p11.2-p23.1 corresponds to approximately 34-cM genetic distance. No small interstitial deletion was seen.Entities:
