Predicting gefitinib responsiveness in lung cancer by fluorescence in situ hybridization/chromogenic in situ hybridization analysis of EGFR and HER2 in biopsy and cytology specimens.
In non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutational analysis is an excellent predictor of responsiveness to treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors, such as gefitinib. In up to 80% of NSCLCs, cytologic samples or endoscopic biopsies are the only specimens available for molecular analysis, but PCR amplification of DNA from small fixed and paraffin-embedded...

15 صفحه اولDifferentiating and Categorizing of Liposarcoma and Synovial Sarcoma Neoplasms by Fluorescence in Situ Hybridization
Background & Objective: Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) constitute an uncommon and heterogeneous group of tumors of mesenchymal origin and various cytogenetic abnormalities ranging from distinct genomic rearrangements, such as chromosomal translocations and amplifications, to more intricate rearrangements involving multiple chromosomes. Fluorescence in situ...
متن کاملRetrospective assessment of radiation dose by Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization and evaluation of stable chromosomal aberrations
Estimation of absorbed dose for radiation workers or person involved in different radiological accident is the aim of biodosimetry. Cytogenetic methods are the most current and applicable biodosimetry tools. In chronic or protracted exposure, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), stable chromosomal aberration is used for estimation of absorbed dose. For precise estimation of absorbed dose,...
متن کاملPredicting Effects of Clinicopathological Variables on Her2 Gene Amplification by Chromogenic in situ Hybridization (CISH) in IHC Her2 (2+) Breast Cancer Patients; A Study from Iran
Background & Objective: The her2 amplification plays an important role in breast cancer management. Therefore, there is a need for using supplementary molecular methods in IHC equivocal cases. Present study has been conducted to determine the effects of clinicopathological variables on her2 gene amplification by chromogenic in situ hybridization (CISH) in IHC ...
