<i>MYC</i>gene numerical aberrations in actinic keratosis and cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma
11 Jun 2009
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The genetic alterations that drive the transition from actinic keratoses (AKs) to cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) have not been defined precisely. Amplification and/or overexpression of the MYC proto-oncogene have been demonstrated in several human, malignant tumours including head and neck SCCs. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the presence of MYC genomic aberrations in both AKs and SCCs. METHODS:...
