http://www.Nature.com/articles/d41586-018-06029-5 Discusses the high prevalence of AR-enhancer amplifications in recent studies
QT:{{”
“Quigley and colleagues performed whole-genome sequencing of 101 samples of metastatic, castration-resistant prostate-cancer tissue obtained from previous studies11,12. The most frequently altered genomic site identified was the AR-enhancer region, which was amplified in 81% of samples. The high prevalence of this type of amplification is notable because enhancer amplifications identified so far for other cancer types generally arise at much lower
frequency13–16. Moreover, the high prevalence of this AR-enhancer amplification in the data presented by Viswanathan and Quigley contrasts with its occurrence in only 1 of 54 previously published whole-genome sequences of prostate-cancer samples obtained before clinical treatment had commenced17.”
