## Abstract Intratumor heterogeneity in chromosomal aberrations is believed to represent a major challenge in the treatment of cancer. The aim of our work was to assess the chromosomal heterogeneity of advanced cervical carcinomas and to distinguish aberrations that had occurred at a late stage of
The majority of colorectal cancers develop from adenomatous polyps under the influence of factors that are still poorly understood. Tumourigenesis is generally considered a multistep process in which multiple genetic alterations occur, eventually reflected in abnormalities of the cellular DNA conten
## BACKGROUND. Cytogenetics and molecular biology studies have indicated that a large subset of human colorectal adenocarcinomas have distal 1p chromosome arm deletions. The aim of this study was to evaluate the intratumor distribution of 1p deletions under the assumption that homogeneity is an in
## Background: The origin and evolution of somatic chromosome aberrations in colorectal cancer is still poorly understood. the data in the literature suggest that some specific chromosome aberrations are more common. it is not known, however, if there is a correlation of these with near-diploid and
Microsatellite instability (MSI)-mutator phenotype variably targets microsatellite-like sequences in coding regions of cancer-related genes. Intratumor histological heterogeneity of gastric carcinoma with MSI was evaluated and found to be linked with the topographical distribution of MSI-associated
