Arsenic-related DNA copy-number alterations in lung squamous cell carcinomas
14 Sept 2010
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Lung squamous cell carcinomas (SqCCs) occur at higher rates following arsenic exposure. Somatic DNA copy-number alterations (CNAs) are understood to be critical drivers in several tumour types. We have assembled a rare panel of lung tumours from a population with chronic arsenic exposure, including SqCC tumours from patients with no smoking history. METHODS: Fifty-two lung SqCCs were analysed by...
