title: Cytogenomic aberrations associated with prostate cancer.
abstract: Genetic changes associated with prostate cancer have finally begun to elucidate some of the mechanisms involved in the etiology of this complex and common disease. We highlight consistent and relatively frequent abnormalities seen by various methodologies. Specifically, the results of conventional and molecular cytogenetic studies, genome-wide association studies with single nucleotide polymorphisms, recurrent gene fusions, and epigenetic analyses are discussed.
