The prognostic value of DNA ploidy was evaluated in 25 patients with primary gastric leiomyosarcoma, using parafin-embedded archival specimens analysed by DNA $ow cytometry. Ploidy patterns were diploid in ten tumours and non-diploid in 15. They did not correlate with clinicopathological features of

DNA ploidy microspectrophotometrically determined in 254 patients with gastric carcinoma was investigated from the standpoint of tumor invasion, lymph node metastasis, and prognosis. DNA distribution patterns were grouped into low and high ploidies. The 24.0% frequency in the high ploidy group, at t
## Background and objectives: The relationship of the tumor dna content to survival of patients with advanced epithelial cancer has not yet been clarified. a large amount of contradictory data exists in the literature. this study analyzes the putative relationship between ploidy and advanced ovaria
Aberrant 5ะ CpG island methylation is an alternative mechanism of gene inactivation during the development of cancer as demonstrated for several tumor-suppressor genes. Also, marked relationship of microsatellite instability (MSI) and DNA methylation has been reported in sporadic colorectal cancer,
