In an attempt to identify chromosomal abnormalities that may be associated with a metastatic phenotype, we investigated the pattern of chromosomal gains and losses in 66 node-positive and 63 node-negative primary breast carcinomas. For both subgroups of tumours, losses were more common than gains an

Studies on relationships between angiogenesis and tumour cell proliferation have provided conflicting results. This study has therefore investigated the relationships between the number and location of fully automatically identified CD31-positive microvessels and interactively segmented mitoses and
## Short -term cultures of breast cancer metastases to bone from two patients were analyzed cytogenetically. One metastasis had a complex hypotriploid karyotype with numerous marker chromosomes, whereas the other had simple karyotypic changes in three unrelated clones, 46,XX,t(4; I I )(p I4;p I 3)
Small cell carcinomas (SCCs) represent a rare histological subtype of urinary bladder cancer. Little is known abut the genetic alterations in these tumours. To identify chromosomal aberrations that are typically present in SCC of the urinary bladder, ten tumours were analysed by comparative genomic
Background: Second primary neoplasms (SPN) have been seen with diseases such as breast cancer and Hodgkin's disease. Therapeutic agents used for their treatment have been found responsible for the development of SPN in some cases. In addition, genetic factors are known to contribute to their develop
Distal alterations of the short arm of chromosome 1 are among the most frequent cytogenetic abnormalities in human breast carcinoma. We studied 96 primary human breast carcinomas for allelic imbalance using a panel of 31 polymorphic microsatellite, restriction fragment length polymorphism, and varia
