To assess whether specific genes have relevant somatic genetic or epigenetic alterations in ectopic tissue, we used a combined analysis of transcriptome (confirmed by qRT-PCR on 68 genes), methylome,
Background: High-resolution microarray technology is routinely used in basic research and clinical practice to efficiently detect copy number variants (CNVs) across the entire human genome. A new gene
Copy number variations (CNVs) are a form of genetic alteration strongly implicated in numerous neurological and psychiatric disorders, as well as brain cancer. Replication stress is a common cause of
