## Background: Primary liver cancer, which most often takes the form of hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc), is among the 10 most common cancers in humans worldwide. in hepatocarcinogenesis, evidence of a multistep process is supported by the marked increase of hcc incidence with age; most hccs are diag

Gene amplification refers to a genomic change that results in an increased dosage of the gene(s) affected. Amplification represents one of the major molecular pathways through which the oncogenic potential of proto-oncogenes is activated during tumorigenesis. The architecture of amplified genomic st
Amplification without structural rearrangements of the c-myc proto-oncogene was found in 14 of 44 primary cervical neoplasms. There was no apparent correlation with stage of disease or degree of cellular differentiation. The prognostic significance of c-myc amplification cannot be determined from th
The role of int-2 oncogene amplification on the prognosis of breast cancer patients was investigated in 128 patients with node-negative primary breast cancers given first-line local-regional treatments until relapse and with a median follow-up of 65 months. Tumours had been previously characterised
