Project description:Cytogenetic analysis of 36 pheochromocytoma and four paraganglioma using high density arrays A series of 36 pheochromocytoma and four paraganglioma were analysed for genomic structural alterations using high density copy number arrays
Project description:Until now, it is nearly impossible to diagnose malignancy of pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma with pathological examinations. The aim of the study is to find the genes which can be applied as a biomarker in the clinic to distinguish benign and malignant forms of pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma. We generated aCGH profiles of 9 samples of benign tumors and 3 samples of malignant tumors

Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma samples carrying different mutations. The Illumina Infinium EPIC Human DNA methylation Beadchip was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles.
Project description:Transcriptional analysis of 84 primary pheochromocytoma (PCC)/paraganglioma tumors. 84 samples (primary pheochromocytoma (PCC)/paraganglioma tumors) were hybridized onto a cDNA microarray in order to investigate possible heterogeneity within these tumors
