Human adenoid cystic carcinoma vs. human normal lymphocyte

ABSTRACT: We analyzed ten adenoid cystic carcinomas of head and neck by array-based comparative genomic hybridization (a-CGH) using DNA chips spotted 4,030 BAC clones. After data smoothing by the adaptive weights smoothing (AWS) procedure with the gain and loss analysis of DNA (GLAD) algorithm, a total of 89 DNA copy number aberrations (DSCNAs) were detected. The frequent (≥30%) DSCNAs were loss of 6q24, 6q25, 8p23, 6q25, and 6q23 and gains of 6q23, 8p23, 9p11-13, and 22q13. High-level gain was detected on 12q12-15 including MDM2 in two cases. These two cases showed immunohistochemically positive status of MDM2 and negative status of p53 and p21. Furthermore, the total number of DSCNAs was significantly greater in ACC with loss of 6q than in other ACC, in ACC without loss of 8p23 than in other ACC,
