Cancer development is associated with multiple genetic alterations and genomic instability either at the chromosomal or base pair level is generally thought to underlie these changes. However, it is still unknown whether genetic instability is absolutely required for tumorigenesis. Here we investig...

We report the DNA-methylation profiling of 10 regions selected from the DLK1-DIO3 domain on chromosome 14q32 in BM/PB samples from patients with acute promyelocytic leukaemia (APL), other subclasses of acute myeloid leukaemia and healthy donors, using high-throughput amplicon bisulfite sequencing wi...

Copy number analysis of 21 paediatric low-grade astrocytomas identified a discrete copy number gain of 1.9Mb in chromosome band 7q34. The gain was present in 12/14 cerebellar pilocytic astrocytomas. Subsequent analysis of tumour cDNA indentified a novel gene fusion between KIAA1549 and BRAF in these...

Genome-wide analysis of single nucleotide polymorphisms in 64 acute myeloid leukemias has revealed that 20% exhibited large regions of homozygosity that could not be accounted for by visible chromosomal abnormalities in the karyotype. Further analysis confirmed that these patterns were due to partia...

In this study we have screened 56 pairs of AML samples for cryptic copy number aberration and loss-of-heterozygosity. We have identified 80 CNAs among 56 patient samples; 21 containing <5 genes while 11 contained or were present within a single gene. Four (7%) patients carried gains at sub-telomeres...
