The regions identified at chromosome 8q are similar to the regions recently identified by high-resolution CGH (van Duin et al, 2005), showing amplification of 8q harbouring genes like C-MYC and EIF3S3, and gain of 17q25 in advanced cases of PCa (Ribeiro et al, 2006). The gene discussed is MYC; the disease is posterior cortical atrophy.
