Project description:Copy number profiling of 36 ovarian tumors on Affymetrix 100K SNP arrays Thirty-six ovarian tumors were profiled for copy-number alterations with the Affymetrix 100K Mapping Array. Copy number profiling of 36 ovarian tumors on Affymetrix 500K SNP arrays Sixteen ovary tumors were profiled for copy-number alterations with the high-resolution Affymetrix 500K Mapping Array.
Project description:Fifty-seven ovary tumors were profiled for copy-number alterations with the high-resolution Affymetrix 500K Mapping Array. Keywords: Mapping Array
Project description:Fifty-one breast tumors were profiled for copy-number alterations with the high-resolution Affymetrix 500K Mapping Array. Combined analysis of the prevalence and amplitude of copy-number alterations defined regions of recurrent gain or loss. Gains were most frequently observed on chromosomes 1, 8, 10, 11, 13, 15, 17, and 20. Losses were most frequent on chromosomes 3, 6, 11, 13, 14, 16, and 17. Compared with previous lower-resolution data, our analysis provided significantly more precise boundaries for frequently altered regions, greatly reducing the number of potential alteration-driving genes. Keywords: Mapping Array
Project description:sPNETs are highly malignant embryonal brain tumours of poor prognosis. The underlying biology is poorly understood. To address this we therefore performed high resolution genetic analysis. 36 CNS PNETs and 8 PBs were analysed using the Affymetrix 100K and 500K Mapping Set to identify copy number imbalance at both the chromosome and gene level. Keywords: Affymetrix 100K SNP array, Affymetrix 500K SNP arrays
