Clusters of lymph nodes are found in the underarms, groin, neck, chest, and abdomen. Also called lymph glands.

  • Ikaros mutant thymic lymphoma tumors

    Mus musculus Mus musculus | RNA Expression   RNA Expression

    The experiment was to compare leukemic T cells from thymic lymphomas from homozygote mice for the IkL/L hypomorphic mutation and non-transformed thymocytes, either of WT or IkL/L genotype. The aim was to identify a gene expression signature specific to the IkL/L tumors.

  • Aberrations linked to breast cancer pathophysiologies

    Homo sapiens Homo sapiens | RNA Expression   RNA Expression

    This study explores the roles of genome copy number abnormalities (CNAs) in breast cancer pathophysiology by identifying associations between recurrent CNAs, gene expression, and clinical outcome in a set of aggressively treated early-stage breast tumors. It shows that the recurrent CNAs differ betw…
