Genetic Alterations in Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma as revealed by Degenerate Oligonucleotide Primed PCR-Comparative Genomic Hybridization
Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC), a malignant neoplasm of the biliary epithelium,is usually fatal because of difficulty in early diagnosis and lack of availability of effective therapy. The genetic mechanisms involved in the development of ICC are not well understood and only a few cytogenetic studies of ICC have been published. Recently, technique of degenerate oligonucleotide primed (DOP...
متن کاملWhole-Genome Amplification by Degenerate Oligonucleotide Primed PCR (DOP-PCR).
INTRODUCTIONPCR-based whole-genome amplification (WGA) has the goal of generating microgram quantities of genome-representative DNA from picogram or nanogram amounts of starting material. This amplification should introduce little, or ideally no, representational bias. Unlike other techniques for WGA, PCR-based methods are generally less affected by DNA quality and are more applicable to DNA ex...
متن کاملDegenerate oligonucleotide-primed PCR (DOP-PCR): evaluation of its reliability for screening of genetic alterations in neoplasia.
Genetic alterations underlie the development and progression of neoplasia. Screening for genetic alterations in biopsies and premalignant lesions, where the neoplastic tissue analyzed usually constitutes only a small fraction of the cells in the specimen, often is difficult and tedious. Even after successful isolation of DNA, limited quantities allow only a few genetic analyses, limiting the id...
متن کاملGenetic alterations in lobular breast cancer by comparative genomic hybridization.
Infiltrating lobular carcinoma (ILC) and infiltrating ductal carcinoma (IDC) are distinguished by their histopathological appearance. However, little is known about the differences in genetic changes between lobular cancers and ductal cancers. We used comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) and compared aberrations in 19 ILCs and 46 IDCs. The total number of aberrations was lower in ILC than in...
متن کاملMicroalterations of inherently unstable genomic regions in rat mammary carcinomas as revealed by long oligonucleotide array-based comparative genomic hybridization.
The presence of copy number variants in normal genomes poses a challenge to identify small genuine somatic copy number changes in high-resolution cancer genome profiling studies due to the use of unpaired reference DNA. Another problem is the well-known rearrangements of immunoglobulin and T-cell receptor genes in lymphocytes (a commonly used reference), which may misdirect the researcher to a ...
