Identification of a commonly amplified 4.3 Mb region with overexpression of C8FW, but not MYC in MYC-containing double minutes in myeloid malignancies
5 May 2004
Abstract excerpt
Double minutes (dmin), the cytogenetic hallmark of genomic amplification, are found in approximately 1% of karyotypically abnormal acute myeloid leukemias (AML) and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). The MYC gene at 8q24 has been reported to be amplified in the majority of the cases, and generally it has been assumed that MYC is the target gene. However, only a few studies have focused on the extent of the amplicon...
