Shortened Telomeres in Serous Tubal Intraepithelial Carcinoma: An Early Event in Ovarian High-grade Serous Carcinogenesis
28 Apr 2010
Abstract excerpt
Short telomeres are one of the main genetic manifestations in human cancer, as they have been shown to play an important role in inducing chromosomal instability and in contributing to tumor progression. The purpose of this study was to determine if changes in telomere length occur in serous tubal intraepithelial carcinoma (STIC), the putative precursor of "ovarian" high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC). Twenty-two...
