Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive molecular characterization of human colon and rectal cancer

Donna M. Muzny, +320 more
- 19 Jul 2012 - 
TL;DR: Integrative analyses suggest new markers for aggressive colorectal carcinoma and an important role for MYC-directed transcriptional activation and repression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive molecular characterization of gastric adenocarcinoma

Adam J. Bass, +257 more
- 11 Sep 2014 - 
TL;DR: A comprehensive molecular evaluation of 295 primary gastric adenocarcinomas as part of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) project is described and a molecular classification dividing gastric cancer into four subtypes is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mutational heterogeneity in cancer and the search for new cancer-associated genes

Michael S. Lawrence, +96 more
- 11 Jul 2013 - 
TL;DR: A fundamental problem with cancer genome studies is described: as the sample size increases, the list of putatively significant genes produced by current analytical methods burgeons into the hundreds and the list includes many implausible genes, suggesting extensive false-positive findings that overshadow true driver events.
Journal ArticleDOI

The landscape of somatic copy-number alteration across human cancers

Rameen Beroukhim, +86 more
- 18 Feb 2010 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that cancer cells containing amplifications surrounding the MCL1 and BCL2L1 anti-apoptotic genes depend on the expression of these genes for survival, and a large majority of SCNAs identified in individual cancer types are present in several cancer types.
