(Submitter supplied) The aim of this study is to establish an integrative profiling of recurrent UPDs/UPPs, CNAs and genome-wide methylation status in sporadic CRC. Our results indicate that regions showing high frequencies of UPDs/UPPs mostly coincide with regions typically involved in genomic losses such as chromosome arms 1p, 5q, 8p, 14q, 17p, 18q, 20p, and 22q. Of these, chromosome arms 5q, 14q, 17p, and 20p preferentially showed UPDs/UPPs over genomic losses suggesting that tumor cells must maintain the disomic state of certain genes to favor cellular fitness.
