“…The prevalence of the ploidy level of chromosome 17 agreed with the studies of Rao et al (1993) and Van Dekken et al (1990), who examined 6 and 10 gastric carcinomas, respectively, by means of FISH. They found quite frequent trisomy and tetrasomy, although they did not compare these results with the histological type.…”

“…En este estudio se encontr贸 una alta frecuencia (63%) de aneuploid铆as del cromosoma 17 en los diversos tumores s贸lidos, lo que concuerda con lo publicado en otros trabajos similares realizados con FISH (11,(15)(16)(17)(18). Sin embargo, debe mencionarse que los estudios muestran una amplia escala de porcentajes de aneuploid铆as para el cromosoma 17 (entre 10% y 80%).…”

“…Sin embargo, es similar al encontrado por Risio et al De esta manera, en la literatura se describen dos patrones de alteraciones cromos贸micas (uno monos贸mico y otro tris贸mico) en tumores gastrointestinales. Estos trabajos tambi茅n correlacionan la p茅rdida del cromosoma 17 con tumores malignos, similar a lo observado en los carcinomas de colon (15,16,26).…”

“…In endometrial cases, deletion of chromosome 3, the most frequent structural alteration observed, was found in 13 cells of cases E5, E6 and E9, while no deletion of chromosome 3 was found in ovarian cancers. Deletions generally cause the loss of tumor suppressor genes [15][16][17][18][19]. Molecular studies have shown loss of heterozygosity (LOH) on 3p, which seems to be a common event in endo metrial tumors and related to LOH in the FHIT (fragile histidine triad) and the hMLH1 locus [13].…”

“…In another study [14], various deletions (3p13, 21, 22, 26) of chromosome 3p were associated with the development of uterine cervical carcinoma in Indian patients. Del(3)(q13q23) was the most consistent aberration observed in six of nine gastric and esophageal adenocarcinomas [15]. Through positional cloning of the 3q21 breakpoint, a novel gene, DIRC2, reported to encode a multi membrane-spanning protein that represents a new member of the major facilitator superfamily (MFS) of transporters, and these fragilities associated with sporadic and familial renal cell carcinomas [16].…”
