Genomic rearrangements in prostate cancer

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Genomic instability is a fundamental feature of human cancer, leading to the activation of oncogenes and inactivation of tumor suppressors. In prostate cancer (PCA), structural genomic rearrangements, resulting in gene fusions, amplifications, and deletions, are a critical mechanism effecting these alterations. Here, we review recent literature regarding the importance of genomic rearrangements...
