Canine Mammary Tumours Are Affected by Frequent Copy Number Aberrations, including Amplification of MYC and Loss of PTEN
BACKGROUND Copy number aberrations frequently occur during the development of many cancers. Such events affect dosage of involved genes and may cause further genomic instability and progression of cancer. In this survey, canine SNP microarrays were used to study 117 canine mammary tumours from 69 dogs. RESULTS We found a high occurrence of copy number aberrations in canine mammary tumours, lo...
متن کاملEvaluation of HER2, MDM2, MYC, MET and TP53 gene copy number alterations in gastric cancer patients
Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is considered as one of the most common types of cancer worldwide with poor prognosis and generally limited treatment options. Recent studies have indicated that HER2, MDM2, MYC, MET, and TP53 play an important role in the development of gastric cancer. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of amplification/deletion of these genes in pati...
متن کاملOccurrence of Canine Mammary Tumours
The study conducted in thirty clinical cases of canine mammary tumour patients revealed that Spitz was the mostly affected breed and the age group was 79 years. Incidences were more with non spayed dogs and 4 and 5 mammary glands were mostly involved. Out of thirty cases of mammary tumour presented in present study, one was male and 9 cases (30%) had multiple growths and 21 cases (70%) had soli...
متن کاملMultiple Components of the VHL Tumor Suppressor Complex Are Frequently Affected by DNA Copy Number Loss in Pheochromocytoma
Pheochromocytomas (PCC) are rare tumors that arise in chromaffin tissue of the adrenal gland. PCC are frequently inherited through predisposing mutations in genes such as the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumor suppressor. VHL is part of the VHL elongin BC protein complex that also includes CUL2/5, TCEB1, TCEB2, and RBX1; in normoxic conditions this complex targets hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha (H...
متن کاملHunk negatively regulates c-myc to promote Akt-mediated cell survival and mammary tumorigenesis induced by loss of Pten.
The protooncogenes Akt and c-myc each positively regulate cell growth and proliferation, but have opposing effects on cell survival. These oncogenes cooperate to promote tumorigenesis, in part because the prosurvival effects of Akt offset the proapoptotic effects of c-myc. Akt's ability to counterbalance c-myc's proapoptotic effects has primarily been attributed to Akt-induced stimulation of pr...
