Array-based comparative genomic hybridization from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded breast tumors.
Identification of prognostic and predictive genomic markers requires long-term clinical follow-up of patients. Extraction of high-quality DNA from archived formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded material is essential for such studies. Of particular importance is a robust reproducible method of whole genome amplification for small tissue samples. This is especially true for high-resolution analytical...
متن کاملHigh-resolution array-based comparative genomic hybridization for distinguishing paraffin-embedded Spitz nevi and melanomas.
Distinguishing between Spitz nevus and melanoma presents a challenging task for clinicians and pathologists. Most of these lesions are submitted entirely in formalin for histologic analysis by conventional hematoxylin and eosin-stained sections, and fresh-frozen material for ancillary studies is rarely collected. Molecular techniques, such as comparative genomic hybridization (CGH), can detect ...
متن کاملHuman Cancer Biology Primary Central Nervous System Lymphomas: A Validation Study of Array-Based Comparative Genomic Hybridization in Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded Tumor Specimens
Purpose: Only a limited number of genetic studies have been conducted in primary central nervous system lymphomas (PCNSL), partly due to the rarity of the tumors and the very limited amount of available tissue. In this report, we present the first molecular characterization of copy number abnormalities (CNA) of newly diagnosed PCNSL by array-based comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) in for...

متن کاملDistinct genomic profiles in hereditary breast tumors identified by array-based comparative genomic hybridization.
Mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 account for a significant proportion of hereditary breast cancers. Earlier studies have shown that inherited and sporadic tumors progress along different somatic genetic pathways and that global gene expression profiles distinguish between these groups. To determine whether genomic profiles similarly discriminate among BRCA1, BRCA2, and sporadic tumors, we establish...
