However, while childhood and adolescent cancer therapies improve long-term survival, such treatments may lead to abnormal pubertal development, infertility, and gonadal failure. As more children and young adults survive childhood cancer and lead productive lives, th...
متن کاملTumorigenicity and oncogene expression in pediatric cancers.
Cytogenetic and epidemiological studies of pediatric cancers have implicated a loss of genetic information in the development of these tumors. In contrast, other studies have shown that activation of endogenous oncogenes is a common event in these cancer cells. The technique of somatic cell hybridization provides a model for investigating the interaction between loss of genetic elements and onc...
