Our results suggest that a potential tumor suppressor gene(s) may reside in the < 2 Mb region centromeric (inclusive) to the BRCA1 gene and that this tumor suppressor gene(s) may be involved in the formation of prostate cancer.

These data are consistent with the hypothesis that BRCA1 mutations are involved in the etiology of hereditary ovarian carcinomas but occur rarely in sporadic tumors, and that the frequent allelic loss on chromosome 17q in this cancer type reflects the involvement of an additional tumor suppressor gene(s).

Analysis of polymorphic loci on 17q in the series of hybrid clones suggested that a tumor suppressor gene associated with prostate cancer was located in a region no more than 28 cM long at 17q12-q22, which includes the BRCA1 gene involved in hereditary breast cancer.

Our data support a tumour suppressor mechanism for BRCA1; somatic mutations and LOH may result in inactivation of BRCA1 in at least a small number of ovarian cancers.

The BRCA1 region is also subject to allelic loss in sporadic breast and ovarian cancers, an indication that BRCA1 mutations may occur somatically in these tumors.

There was loss of the wild-type allele from both maternally and paternally derived chromosomes, therefore excluding the possibility of genomic imprinting and providing further evidence that BRCA1 is a tumor suppressor.

Loss of heterozygosity in breast and ovarian tumors from BRCA1-linked patients always involved loss of wild-type alleles from chromosome 17q21, suggesting that BRCA1 acts as a tumor suppressor gene.

Markers from this map can be used to determine whether cancer is linked to BRCA1 in families, to evaluate whether tumors have lost heterozygosity at loci in the region, and to identify probes for characterizing chromosomal rearrangements from patients and from tumors.

These results suggest that inactivation of the BRCA1 gene may not be responsible for the development of borderline ovarian tumors and that another tumor suppressor gene, located centromeric to the BRCA1 gene, may play a role in sporadic ovarian cancer development.
