Genetic aberration in primary hepatocellular carcinoma: correlation between p53 gene mutation and loss-of-hetero- zygosity on chromosome 16q21-q23 and 9p21-p23

To elucidate the molecular pathology underlying the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), we used 41 highly polymorphic microsatellite markers to examine 55 HCC and corresponding non-tumor liver tissues on chromosome 9, 16 and 17. Loss-of-heterozygosity (LOH) is observed with high frequency...
