Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Array Profiling of Adrenocortical Tumors - Evidence for an Adenoma Carcinoma Sequence?
Adrenocortical tumors consist of benign adenomas and highly malignant carcinomas with a still incompletely understood pathogenesis. A total of 46 adrenocortical tumors (24 adenomas and 22 carcinomas) were investigated aiming to identify novel genes involved in adrenocortical tumorigenesis. High-resolution single nucleotide polymorphism arrays (Affymetrix) were used to detect copy number alterat...
متن کاملA Case of Virilizing Adrenocortical Adenoma
SUMMARY A 2/12 Year-old boy with IsoSexual Pseudoprecocious puberty due to a Virilizing Adrenocortical adenoma is presentecl, who was crronously treated as CAH for 9 months. Prevalence, clinical presentation, diagnosis and differential diagnosis of these tumors are discussed briefly.
متن کاملHigh-resolution single-nucleotide polymorphism array-profiling in myeloproliferative neoplasms identifies novel genomic aberrations.
Single-nucleotide polymorphism arrays allow for genome-wide profiling of copy-number alterations and copy-neutral runs of homozygosity at high resolution. To identify novel genetic lesions in myeloproliferative neoplasms, a large series of 151 clinically well characterized patients was analyzed in our study. Copy-number alterations were rare in essential thrombocythemia and polycythemia vera. I...
متن کاملSingle-Nucleotide Polymorphism Array-Based Karyotyping of Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is characterized by the t(15;17)(q22;q21), but additional chromosomal abnormalities (ACA) and other rearrangements can contribute in the development of the whole leukemic phenotype. We hypothesized that some ACA not detected by conventional techniques may be informative of the onset of APL. We performed the high-resolution SNP array (SNP-A) 6.0 (Affymetrix) in...
متن کاملGene expression profiling of childhood adrenocortical tumors.
Pediatric adrenocortical tumors (ACT) are rare and often fatal malignancies; little is known regarding their etiology and biology. To provide additional insight into the nature of ACT, we determined the gene expression profiles of 24 pediatric tumors (five adenomas, 18 carcinomas, and one undetermined) and seven normal adrenal glands. Distinct patterns of gene expression, validated by quantitat...
