Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), which includes familial polyposis coli (FPC) and the Gardner syndrome (GS), is a genetically determined premalignant disease of the colon inherited by a locus (APC) mapping within 5q15-q22. To elucidate the role of 5q loss in FAP tumorigenesis, we analysed 51 colorectal tumors and seven desmoids from 19 cases of FPC and five GS patients, as well as 15 sporadic colon cancers. RFLP analysis revealed a high incidence of allelic deletion in hereditary colon cancers as well as in sporadic colon cancers with a peak at the APC locus. APC loss resulted primarily from interstitial deletion or mitotic recombination. Combined tumor and pedigree analysis in a GS family revealed loss of normal 5q alleles in three tumors, including a desmoid tumor, which suggests the involvement of hemizygosity or homozygosity of the defective APC gene in colon carcinogenesis and, possibly, in extracolonic neoplasms associated with FAP.

D011125 Adenomatous Polyposis Coli A polyposis syndrome due to an autosomal dominant mutation of the APC genes (GENES, APC) on CHROMOSOME 5. The syndrome is characterized by the development of hundreds of ADENOMATOUS POLYPS in the COLON and RECTUM of affected individuals by early adulthood.

D015342 DNA Probes Species- or subspecies-specific DNA (including COMPLEMENTARY DNA; conserved genes, whole chromosomes, or whole genomes) used in hybridization studies in order to identify microorganisms, to measure DNA-DNA homologies, to group subspecies, etc. The DNA probe hybridizes with a specific mRNA, if present. Conventional techniques used for testing for the hybridization product include dot blot assays, Southern blot assays, and DNA:RNA hybrid-specific antibody tests. Conventional labels for the DNA probe include the radioisotope labels 32P and 125I and the chemical label biotin. The use of DNA probes provides a specific, sensitive, rapid, and inexpensive replacement for cell culture techniques for diagnosing infections.
