“…Bucholz and Wu found that women with bilateral breast cancer showed significantly higher levels of radiation-induced chromatid breaks than did healthy controls (19). Imyanitov and colleagues reported microsatellite instability in 15% of 46 bilateral breast cancers from 23 women (20).…”

“…Surprisingly, we observed several tumors with the "colonic" type MSI, which is very uncommon for cancers of the breast (Adem et al 2003;Anbazhagan et al 1999;Halford et al 2003;Seitz et al 2003;Siah et al 2000;Zhou et al 1998). Here we present an update of our earlier investigation, which contains the following improvements: (1) contrary to the report (Imyanitov et al 2000), the analysis of MSI was the primary goal of this study; therefore, MSI-speciWc markers were used instead of the ones designed for the analysis of losses of heterozygosity; (2) the collection of biBC tumors was signiWcantly enlarged; (3) the control group of unilateral breast carcinomas (BC) was examined as well. We conWrm that MSI-H does occur in bilateral but not in unilateral breast cancers.…”

“…In our earlier report we described microsatellite analysis of allelic imbalances in bilateral breast carcinomas (biBC) (Imyanitov et al 2000). Surprisingly, we observed several tumors with the "colonic" type MSI, which is very uncommon for cancers of the breast (Adem et al 2003;Anbazhagan et al 1999;Halford et al 2003;Seitz et al 2003;Siah et al 2000;Zhou et al 1998).…”

“…In primary breast carcinoma, LOH represents the most frequent mutation (van de Vijver, 1993) and affects a large number of distinct chromosomal regions (Devilee and Cornelisse, 1994;Bieche and Lidereau, 1995;Kerangueven et al, 1997;Ingvarsson, 1999), notably 1p (Nagai et al, 1995;Tsukamoto et al, 1998;Imyanitov et al, 2000;Lerebours et al, 2002;Wang et al, 2004) and 10q (Richard et al, 2000;Jones et al, 2001;Kleivi et al, 2002;Achary et al, 2003;Wang et al, 2004). These two human chromosomal segments are also the site of frequent deletions (LOH) in several other tumor types (Saran et al, 1996;Schwab et al, 1996;Knuutila et al, 1999;Yeh et al, 1999;Dong, 2001;Qin, 2002;Inda et al, 2003;Thiessen et al, 2003;Karoui et al, 2004;Zhu et al, 2004).…”

“…In an effort to identify novel putative TSGs that may reside in the LOH regions previously identified, we focused our efforts on two LOH regions, Naad4 and Naad7 on chromosome 4 and 19, respectively, previously found in a high proportion of these Erbb2-induced Tg mammary tumors. These regions are homologous to human 1p32-36 and 10q23-26, respectively, which are known to be the sites of frequent LOH in human breast tumors (Nagai et al, 1995;Tsukamoto et al, 1998;Imyanitov et al, 2000;Richard et al, 2000;Jones et al, 2001;Kleivi et al, 2002;Lerebours et al, 2002;Achary et al, 2003;Wang et al, 2004). Because TSG identification is facilitated by narrowing the LOH region of interest to a shorter interval in as many informative tumors as possible, higher-resolution allelotyping was performed.…”
