Comparative genomic hybridization for the diagnosis of melanoma [PDF]
Despite advancements in protocols, a subset of melanocytic lesions continues to pose diagnostic challenges. This is particularly true in the pediatric population where certain congenital nevi mimic melanoma.

Genomic alterations detected by comparative genomic hybridization in ovarian endometriomas [PDF]
Endometriosis is a complex and multifactorial disease. Chromosomal imbalance screening in endometriotic tissue can be used to detect hot-spot regions in the search for a possible genetic marker for endometriosis. The objective of the present study was to

Analysis of pilocytic astrocytoma by comparative genomic hybridization [PDF]
Very little is known about genetic abnormalities involved in the development of pilocytic astrocytoma, the most frequently occurring brain tumour of childhood. We have analysed 48 pilocytic astrocytoma specimens using comparative genomic hybridization.

Comparative Genomic Hybridization (CGH) in Genotoxicology [PDF]
In the past two decades comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) and array CGH have become crucial and indispensable tools in clinical diagnostics. Initially developed for the genome-wide screening of chromosomal imbalances in tumor cells, CGH as well as array CGH have also been employed in genotoxicology and most recently in toxicogenomics.

Comparative genomic hybridization
▪ Abstract Altering DNA copy number is one of the many ways that gene expression and function may be modified. Some variations are found among normal individuals ( 14 , 35 , 103 ), others occur in the course of normal processes in some species ( 33 ), and still others participate in causing various disease states.

Comparative genomics reveals the hybrid origin of a macaque group [PDF]
Although species can arise through hybridization, compelling evidence for hybrid speciation has been reported only rarely in animals. Here, we present phylogenomic analyses on genomes from 12 macaque species and show that the fascicularis group originated from an ancient hybridization between the sinica

Invasive melanoma in a 5-year-old Canadian patient: A case report
Atypical Spitzoid lesions pose a distinct challenge in classification as they may comprise a mixture of both classic benign nevus and cutaneous melanoma characteristics.

Background The 18q- deletion syndrome is a rare congenital chromosomal disorder caused by a partial deletion of the long arm of chromosome 18. The diagnosis of a patient with this syndrome relies on the family medical history, physical examination ...

Clinical applications of comparative genomic hybridization [PDF]
Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) is a powerful DNA-based cytogenetic technique that allows the entire genome to be scanned for chromosomal imbalances without requiring the sample material to be mitotically active. During the past 2 years we received many requests from various medical centers around the country to use CGH to resolve the identity ...
