title: Rearrangement of chromosome 3 in renal cell carcinoma.
abstract: Rearrangements involving chromosome #3 were detected in 8 of 12 nonfamilial renal cell carcinomas. These results suggest that rearrangement of chromosome #3 is associated with the genesis and progression of a subclass of human renal cell carcinoma.
