Concurrent amplification of cyclin E and CDK2 genes in colorectal carcinomas
4 Jul 1995
Abstract excerpt
The genetic changes of cyclin A, DI, E and CDK2 were examined in human colorectal carcinomas by Southern-blot analysis. Gene amplification of cyclin E was detected in 5 of 53 (9.4%) primary colorectal carcinoma tissues. Interestingly, in 3 of 5 tumors showing cyclin E gene amplification, the CDK2 gene was amplified simultaneously with rearrangements. No obvious correlation was detected between gene amplification...
