Figure 1 PCR analysis for Y-chromosomal DNA.Lane 1: Reagents without DNA. Lane 2: DNA extracted from blood of woman without children. Lane 3: Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Lane 4: Blood of a healthy man. Lane 5–9: DNA extracted from tissues of LS and SCC without detectable Y-chromosomal DNA. Lane 10–14: Strong signals corresponding to Y-chromosomal DNA extracted from four patients with LS and one patient with SCC unassociated with LS. The arrow indicates the 93 bp Y-specific fragment (SRY gene). The samples are flanked by a 123 bp size marker (shortest fragment 123 bp with a 123 bp increment) Journal of Investigative Dermatology 2004 122, 1059-1060DOI: (10.1111/j.0022-202X.2004.22428.x) Copyright © 2004 The Society for Investigative Dermatology, Inc Terms and Conditions
