Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: We examined colorectal adenomas and intramucosal adenocarcinomas (IMAs) to develop a genome-wide overview of copy number alterations (CNAs) during colorectal tumorigenesis. METHODS: We analysed CNAs using a high-resolution SNP array of isolated tumour glands obtained from 55 colorectal adenomas (35 low-grade adenomas and 20 high-grade adenomas) and 30 IMAs. Next, we examined whether frequent CNAs...
