Research and diagnostic potential of estimation of chromosome instability in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma
Journal Title: Postępy w Chirurgii Głowy i Szyi - Year 2006, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Chromosome instability is a hidden attribute of a cell and/or organism emerging after an exposure to mutagen. There was established the bleomycin test for a qualitative estimation of chromosome instability being also a measure of mutagen sensitivity and further of genetic risk to develop cancer. A review presents application of bleomycin test to estimate a risk a head and cancer focused on laryngeal cancer. Next, an application to detect a tendency to develop secondary tumour and to estimate a cancer risk in young adults is discussed.
