WHOLE GENOME AMPLIFICATION AND MOLECULAR GENETIC ANALYSIS OF DNA FROM PARAFFIN-EMBEDDED PROSTATE ADENOCARCINOMA TUMOR TISSUE

Abstract

Conclusion Either of these procedures allows distinction between benign and malignant genomes, and also allows independent analysis of genomic alterations in different portions of tumors. They also may be applied clinically for genomic characterization of small foci that frequently appear in prostates of elderly men who are showing no obvious pathological symptoms of adenocarcinoma.
