Real-time quantitative PCR analysis of amplified DNA on chromosomes 4p15.2 and 6q23-24 from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded breast cancer tissues
This study was performed to detect amplification of DNA sequences on chromosomes 4p15.2 and 6q23-24, obtained from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded, breast-cancer tissues. The prognostic relevance of the amplification was also demonstrated. DNA from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tumor and corre...
