Patterns of oncogene activation in human neuroblastoma cells
Abstract
Human neuroblastoma is the most frequent solid tumor in children. Recent studies suggest that a multiplicity of genomic alterations contributes to neuroblastoma, the most frequent and well studied being deletion of the short arm of chromosome 1 and amplification of N-MYC. We here present and discuss different patterns of oncogene activation including, amplification of N-MYC, duplication of N-MYC and amplification of MDM2.
