Novel RNA Hybridization Method for the In Situ Detection of ETV1, ETV4, and ETV5 Gene Fusions in Prostate Cancer
1 Sept 2014
Abstract excerpt
The genetic basis of 50% to 60% of prostate cancer (PCa) is attributable to rearrangements in E26 transformation-specific (ETS) (ERG, ETV1, ETV4, and ETV5), BRAF, and RAF1 genes and overexpression of SPINK1. The development and validation of reliable detection methods are warranted to classify various molecular subtypes of PCa for diagnostic and prognostic purposes. ETS gene rearrangements are typically detected...
