Abstract:469 Background: With the aim to identify genetic markers of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC), we applied tiling BAC array-based comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) to 46 HNPCC-associated colorectal cancer. Methods: 32 k iling BAC arrays were used to generate high-density genomic profiles. Tumors were selected through a case-control design with half of the tumors derived from individuals with disease-predisposing mismatch repair gene mutations and the reminder from phenotypic HNPCC famil… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
