Cancer Cytogenetics: Methodology Revisited
The Philadelphia chromosome was the first genetic abnormality discovered in cancer (in 1960), and it was found to be consistently associated with CML. The description of the Philadelphia chromosome ushered in a new era in the field of cancer cytogenetics. Accumulating genetic data have been shown to be intimately associated with the diagnosis and prognosis of neoplasms; thus, karyotyping is now...
متن کاملFragile X/Cancer Cytogenetics
To begin with, Human Pharmacology is a moderately priced book that makes no pretense to be as encyclopedic as Goodman and Gilman. One of the main advantages of the book is its consistency of presentation. Each chapter is presented in five sections: (1) therapeutic overview; (2) mechanisms of action; (3) pharmacokinetics; (4) relation of mechanisms of action to clinical response; and (5) side ef...
متن کاملCytogenetics, cytotaxonomy and chromosomal evolution of Chrysomelinae revisited (Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae) *
Nearly 260 taxa and chromosomal races of subfamily Chrysomelinae have been chromosomally analyzed showing a wide range of diploid numbers from 2n = 12 to 2n = 50, and four types of male sex-chromosome systems. with the parachute-like ones Xy(p) and XY(p) clearly prevailing (79.0%), but with the XO well represented too (19.75%). The modal haploid number for chrysomelines is n = 12 (34.2%) althou...
متن کاملCytogenetics, gene fusions, and cancer.
Cytogeneticists recognize that karyotypic abnormalities are associated with specific malignancies. In 1960, Nowell described the Philadelphia chromosome (Ph) and its relationship to chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). Subsequent work in molecular genetics and biology has revealed that the Ph is a translocation that causes fusion of gene sites that code for the break cluster region (BCR) and the...
متن کاملCytogenetics of melanoma and nonmelanoma skin cancer.
Cytogenetic analysis of melanoma and nonmelanoma skin cancers has revealed recurrent aberrations, the frequency of which is reflective of malignant potential. Highly aberrant karyotypes are seen in melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma, actinic keratosis, Merkel cell carcinoma and cutaneous lymphomas with more stable karyotypes seen in basal cell carcinoma, keratoacanthoma, Bowen's disease and derm...
