The autophagy GABARAPL1 gene is epigenetically regulated in breast cancer models.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Distinguishing between multiple primary lung cancers and metastatic tumors is often difficult when the tumor histology is same. Since genomic instability is a common feature of cancer, we hypothesized that independently arising neoplasms in an individual patient would exhibit measurable genomic variation, en...
