| Research Abstract |
Gastric cancers show high frequency of DNA aneuploidy, a phenotype of chromosomal instability. It is suggested that the abnormal spindle assembly checkpoint is involved in DNA aneuploidy, but the underlying mechanism is still unclear. We studied the mechanism by assessing the expression of Cdc20 in gastric cancer. The mRNA expression of Cdc20 was not associated with DNA aneuploidy in vitro and gastric cancer patients.
