Article Title: Genetics of transitional cell carcinoma
Abstract: Several models of genetic events which define the origin and progression of human tumors have been elucidated over the last several years. These models suggest that the study of tumors at the level of both the chromosome and the gene can be useful in elucidating molecular events in tumor progression and in determining the biologic behavior of individual tumors. The genetics of transitional cell carcinomas are reviewed with emphasis on potential mechanisms of tumorigenicity and the clinical utility of genetic markers.
