Allelotyping (using at least one probe detecting a restriction fragment length polymorphism on each chromosomal arm, with the exception of the short arms of the acrocentric chromosomes), showed loss of genetic information in 11 of 18 prostate adenocarcinoma specimens analyzed (61%). Frequent allelic deletions were detected on the long arm of chromosome 16 (6 of 10 informative cases, 60%), on the short arm of chromosome 8 (3 of 6 informative cases, 50%), and on the short and/or the long arms of chromosome 10 (6 of 11 informative cases (10p), 55% and 4 of 13 informative cases (10q), 30%, respectively). No losses of alleles were detected in any case unless at least one of the chromosomes 8, 10, or 16 also showed deletions. The long arm of chromosome 18 also showed a high frequency of allelic deletions (3 of 7 informative cases, 43%). Allelic deletions on the following chromosomes were detected at lower frequencies: chromosomes 2, 3, 7, 12, 13, 17, 22, and XY. Tumors with allelic deletions on more than one chromosome had a higher histological malignancy grade. Tumors from patients with advanced disease all showed allelic deletions.
