Laboratory Investigation presents:
'Understanding the development of human bladder cancer by using a
whole-organ genomic mapping strategy'
http://ealerts.nature.com/cgi-bin24/DM/y/eltT0Xztnp0HjK0BvKH0EV
Can this disease be detected earlier? Genome-wide mapping of human
bladder cancer has identified key genetic risk areas for cancer
development and provides new insight into early genetic origins of cancer.
