Finding recurrent copy number alterations preserving within-sample homogeneity
MOTIVATION Copy number alterations (CNAs) represent an important component of genetic variation and play a significant role in many human diseases. Development of array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) technology has made it possible to identify CNAs. Identification of recurrent CNAs represents the first fundamental step to provide a list of genomic regions which form the basis for furt...
متن کاملCopy number alterations in pancreatic cancer identify recurrent PAK4 amplification.
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal of all cancers. The median survival is six months and less than 5% of those diagnosed survive five years. Recurrent genetic deletions and amplifications in 72 pancreatic adenocarcinomas, the largest sample set analyzed to date for pancreatic cancer, were defined using comparative genomic hybridization The recurrent genetic alterations identified targe...
متن کاملRecurrent copy number alterations in young women with breast cancer
Breast cancer diagnosis in young women has emerged as an independent prognostic factor with higher recurrence risk and death than their older counterparts. We aim to find recurrent somatic copy number alteration (CNA) regions identified from breast cancer microarray data and associate the CNA status of the genes harbored in the regions to the survival of young women with breast cancer. By using...
متن کاملRecurrent Chromosomal Copy Number Alterations in Sporadic Chordomas
The molecular events in chordoma pathogenesis have not been fully delineated, particularly with respect to copy number changes. Understanding copy number alterations in chordoma may reveal critical disease mechanisms that could be exploited for tumor classification and therapy. We report the copy number analysis of 21 sporadic chordomas using array comparative genomic hybridization (CGH). Recur...
متن کاملModeling recurrent DNA copy number alterations in array CGH data
MOTIVATION Recurrent DNA copy number alterations (CNA) measured with array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) reveal important molecular features of human genetics and disease. Studying aCGH profiles from a phenotypic group of individuals can determine important recurrent CNA patterns that suggest a strong correlation to the phenotype. Computational approaches to detecting recurrent CNAs ...
