Abstract excerpt
We have analyzed the DNA copy numbers for over 100,000 single-nucleotide polymorphism loci across the human genome in genomic DNA from 313 lymph node-negative primary breast tumors for which genome-wide gene expression data were also available. Combining these two data sets allowed us to identify the genomic loci and their mapped genes, having high correlation with distant metastasis. An estimation of the likely...
