This section publishes research on the variety and impact of chromosomal aberrations on all types of human cancer. Manuscripts on animal models of tumors are also welcome. Case reports can only be considered if they provide a comprehensive review of the literature or describe an as yet-unreported finding in the corresponding malignancy. The exclusive use of molecular cytogenetic approaches (including array-CGH), or a combination of those with banding cytogenetics, standard molecular genetic or modern high-throughput approaches, or with proteomic or epigenetic studies, is welcome.
Primary and recurrent diffuse astrocytomas: genomic profile comparison reveals acquisition of biologically relevant aberrations
Diffuse astrocytomas are characterized by their highly variable biological behavior. The possibility that tumors develop novel aberrations, with relevant biological properties, is often neglected. In this stud...
