Copy-neutral loss of heterozygosity and chromosome gains and losses are frequent in gastrointestinal stromal tumors
BACKGROUND: A KIT gain of function mutation is present in 70% of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) and the wild-type (WT) allele is deleted in 5 to 15% of these cases. The WT KIT is probably deleted during GIST progression. We aimed to identify the mechanism of WT KIT loss and to determine whe...
