Abstract excerpt
To plan a strategy for DNA-based diagnosis of gastric cancer, which is still one of the major causes of death in Akita Prefecture, I reviewed recent studies on genomic instability and genetic changes in gastric cancers. Complex chromosome changes, pathohistology-dependent activation of some proto-oncogenes and -independent inactivation of tumor suppressor genes have been found, which suggests that gastric...
