Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Deletion of 1p is associated with poor prognosis in neuroblastoma, however selected 1p-intact patients still experience poor outcomes. Since mutations of 1p genes may mimic the deleterious effects of chromosomal loss, we studied the incidence, spectrum and effects of mutational variants in 1p-intact neuroblastoma. METHODS: We characterized the 1p status of 325 neuroblastoma patients, and correlated...
