Gene expression profiling of histiocytic sarcomas in a canine model: the predisposed flatcoated retriever dog.
<h4>Background</h4>The determination of altered expression of genes in specific tumor types and their effect upon cellular processes may create insight in tumorigenesis and help to design better treatments. The Flatcoated retriever is a dog breed with an exceptionally high incidence of h...
