Individual crypt genetic heterogeneity and the origin of metaplastic glandular epithelium in human Barrett's oesophagus.

OBJECTIVES: Current models of clonal expansion in human Barrett's oesophagus are based upon heterogenous, flow-purified biopsy analysis taken at multiple segment levels. Detection of identical mutation fingerprints from these biopsy samples led to the proposal that a mutated clone with a select...
