Specific genomic regions are differentially affected by copy number alterations across distinct cancer types, in aggregated cytogenetic data.
BACKGROUND: Regional genomic copy number alterations (CNA) are observed in the vast majority of cancers. Besides specifically targeting well-known, canonical oncogenes, CNAs may also play more subtle roles in terms of modulating genetic potential and broad gene expression patterns of developing tumo...
