Aneuploidy drives lethal progression in prostate cancer

Abstract excerpt

Significance Aneuploidy is usually quantified by measuring intracellular DNA content or chromosome structure and number. We show that the number of altered chromosome arms can be estimated from transcriptome profiling, which allows for assessing aneuploidy within repositories of archival, formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tumors. While aneuploidy impedes proliferation in primary cells, we show that it is a...
