Landscape of chromosome number changes in prostate cancer progression
2013
Purpose
Both genetic instability resulting in aneuploidy and increased proliferative activity are common features of tumor development and progression. Cytometric evaluation of tumor ploidy status was recently suggested as a prognostic marker. However, in prostate cancer (PCa), a chromosome-specific evaluation is lacking. With the present study, we sought to identify distinct chromosomal changes to complement cytometric results concerning the diagnosis and prognosis of PCa patients.
