Genome-Wide Genetic Study on Central Neurocytoma by Comparative Genomic Hybridization / 上海第二医科大学学报

ABSTRACT

Objective To detect the genome-wide genetic alterations in central neurocytoma,and to study the pathogensis of central neurocytoma. Methods Comparative genomic hybridization(CGH) analysis was performed in 10 central neurocytomas. Results Chromosomal imbalances were demonstrated in 6 cases.Overrepresentation of genetic material was detected in 4 cases on Chromosome 2p and 10q,and 3 cases on Chromosome 18q. Conclusion(Genetic abnormalities) on Chromosome 2p,10q and 18q may be associated with the pathogenesis of central neurocytoma.
