Renal Cell Carcinoma With Chromosome 6p Amplification Including the TFEB Gene
25 Dec 2016
Abstract excerpt
Amplification of chromosome 6p has been implicated in aggressive behavior in several cancers, but has not been characterized in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). We identified 9 renal tumors with amplification of chromosome 6p including the TFEB gene, 3 by fluorescence in situ hybridization, and 6 from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) databases.
