(Submitter supplied) African American (AA) men have a significantly higher mortality rate from prostate cancer (PCa) compared to European American (EA) men. AA men are twice as likely to die from PCa compared to EA men and 8 times as likely as Asian American men to die from PCa. The biological basis for these differences in PCa mortality are unclear. We carried out Copy Number Alteration (CNA) studies on a new set of 40 highly tumor-enriched primary PCas and matched benign prostate tissues from AA men using high resolution Affymetrix 6.0 SNP arrays and expression array analysis using RNAs (GSE71016) from the same tissues using high purity tumors from AA men and matched benign tissue. more...
