Title: Preferential involvement of chromosome 1q in a primary breast carcinoma. Author: Kovacs G. Journal: Cancer Genet Cytogenet; 1981 Mar; 3(2):125-9. PubMed ID: 7272991. Abstract: The cytogenetic findings by G- and C-banding in a primary breast carcinoma are reported. The tumor is characterized by a high modal number of chromosomes (79) and 14 markers of ten different origins. Chromosome #1 is more frequently involved in structural and numerical aberrations than is any other chromosome; nine copies of 1q were present in each cell examined. This observation supports the hypothesis that duplication of chromosome 1q may play an important role in the progression of malignant tumors.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
