Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was used in a retrospective analysis of chromosomal imbalances in frozen primary tumor specimens from 14 endometrial carcinoma patients. Chromosome changes were detected in nine cases (64%), and tumor stage and grade tended to parallel the degree of genomic im

To extend the results of conventional cytogenetic analysis of testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs), we applied the new molecular cytogenetic method of comparative genomic hybridization (CGH), which enables the detection of chromosomal imbalances without the need for dividing cells. DNA from I I TGCTs
Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) allows detection of chromosomal imbalances in whole genomes in a comprehensive manner. With this approach, ten cases of prostate cancer (seven primary tumors and three metastases) were analyzed. Frequent chromosomal gains detected by CGH involved chromosome ar
Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was used to detect and map the regions of gain, high-level amplification, and loss of DNA sequences in 14 liposarcomas. Thirteen tumors showed DNA sequence copy number changes of one or more genomic regions (mean, six aberrationdtumor; range, 0-1 7). These abe
By means of comparative genomic hybridization (CGH), we screened 58 primary gastric cancers for changes in copy number of DNA sequences. We detected frequent losses on Ip32-33 (21%), 3p21-23 (22%), 5q14-22 (36%), 6q16 (26%), 9p21-24 (22%), 16q (21%), 17p13 (48%), 18q11-21(33%), and 19(40%). Gains we
