Characterization of chromosome 3q and 12q amplicons in nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell lines

Abstract excerpt

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a distinct geographical disease with high incidence in Southeast Asia. Previous CGH studies have located multiple regions of chromosomal gains and losses in NPC. To elucidate the regions of gain and amplification, a high-resolution array comparative genomic hybridization (array CGH) was applied to characterize the common amplicons in NPC cell lines and xenografts. Consistent with...
