Abstract
The combination of array-based comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) with fluorescence in situ hybridization utilizing custom-designed bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) probes applied to tissue microarrays represents a powerful compendium of techniques–greatly enhancing the throughput of genomic analysis and subsequent target validation. Such approach can be automated at various levels and allows managing large volume of targets and samples in a few experiments. As such, this approach facilitates discovery, validation and implementation of findings in the process of identification of new diagnostic, prognostic and potentially therapeutic molecular markers.
