Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Whole-genome sequencing studies have recently shown that osteosarcomas (OSs) display high rates of structural variation, i.e. they contain many somatic mutations and copy number alterations. TP53 and RB1 show recurrent somatic alterations in concordant studies, suggesting that they could be key players in bone oncogenesis. PATIENTS AND METHODS: we carried out whole-genome sequencing of DNA from seven...
