Study 1: Higher levels of genomic instability detected in necrotic breast cancer tumors could be a consequence of hypoxia-associated DNA damage.
"We have measured genomic instability in invasive breast carcinomas and assessed the relationship of genomic instability to known tumor prognostic factors. DNAs from tumors and adjacent normal tissue of 18 breast cancer patients were subjected to inter-SSR PCR for quantitation of tumor genomic instability," researchers in the United States reported.
"Associations between genomic instability...
