Association between micronucleus frequency and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade in Thinprep cytological test and its significance.
A micronucleus is an additional small nucleus formed due to chromosomes or chromosomal fragments fail to be incorporated into the nucleus during cell division. In this study, we assessed the utility of micronucleus counting as a screening tool in cervical precancerous lesions in Thinprep cytological test smears under oil immersion. High risk HPV was also detected by hybrid capture-2 in Thinprep...
متن کاملCancer-associated proteins in effusion fluids.
Two cancer-associated proteins, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and pregnancy-associated alpha2 glycoprotein (PAG), together with 13 normal serum proteins were measured in the serum and effusion fluid of patients with ascites and pleural effusions. The results indicate that CEA measurement in effusion fluid is more effective than serum measurement in distinguishing cancerous from congestive or i...
متن کاملNanotechnology; its significance in cancer and photodynamic therapy
In the last decade, developments in nanotechnology have provided a new field in medicine called “Nanomedicine”. Nanomedicine has provided new tools for photodynamic therapy. Quantum dots (QDs) are approximately spherical nanoparticles that have attracted broad attention and have been used in nanomedicine applications. QDs have high molar extinction coefficients and photoluminescence quantum yie...
متن کاملHistaminase and other tumor markers in malignant effusion fluids.
The association of histaminase with human cancer has been evaluated in this study by its presence at elevated levels in malignant effusion fluids. Over 400 fluid samples collected from 162 cancer patients of different primaries were analyzed in this study. Incidence of elevation of histarninase in the fluids were compared with that of three other tumor markers: carci noembryonic antigens (CEA);...
متن کاملSignificance of Micronucleus in Cervical Smears – Pilot Study
Aim: Evaluation of the significance of micronuclei (MN) as biomarkers for evaluation the risk of malignant transformation in uterine cervix. MN are intracytoplasmic inclusion bodies from chromatin fragments or whole chromosomes. Their presence in cells is a reflection of chromosomal aberration during cellular mitosis. Patients and methods: MN screening was done in all selected cytopathological ...
