NUCL EAR DNA CONTENT AND DNA PLOIDY ANALYSIS IN BREAST CANCER
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
To investigate the patterns of DNA ploidy and proliferating activity in breast cancer and relate them to other prognostic factors, paraffin blocks of 53 cases of breast carcinoma were studied. Cancer cells obtained by mechanical tissue disaggregation were examined for DNA content, ploidy and S-phase fraction. DNA assay was done using a CAS interactive image analyzing system. All of the cases showed high degrees of proliferation. The rate of aneuploidy was 77% in invasive breast carcinomas. S-phase fractions were correlated with the grades of the tumors (p<O.05). There was no statistically significant correlation between S-phase fractions and other prognostic factors this was also true about the pattern of ploidy and other prognostic factors.

متن کاملDNA content measurement for DNA ploidy and cell cycle analysis.
This unit presents the most common methods of DNA content analysis. The techniques differ primarily in the mode of cell permeabilization (detergents versus prefixation with alcohol) and composition of the stain solution. Protocols are given for analysis of fixed cells, tissue samples, live cells (for subsequent sorting and culture), archival paraffin-embedded tissue, and apoptotic cells.
متن کاملAnalysis of nuclear DNA content and ploidy in higher plants.
This is the first of a series of units discussing the application of cytometry to plant material. Techniques commonly used for mammalian nuclei evaluation need considerable modification to be successful with plant material. David Galbraith and his colleagues bring together many years of knowledge in plant cytometry. Their unit provides detailed protocols on measuring DNA content, ploidy, and ce...
متن کاملDetection of Toxoplasma gondii DNA in Malignant Breast Tissues in Breast Cancer Patients
Breast cancer is the most prevalent malignancy in women throughout the world. Similar to other cancers, a strong relationship between breast cancer and environmental factors such as infectious agents has been reported. Toxoplasma gondii is a protozoan parasite which may play a role in cancer induction. The present study aimed to investigate a possible association between a history of T. gondii ...
متن کاملIntratumoral Variations in DNA Ploidy and S-Phase Fraction in Human Breast Cancer
To study intratumoral DNA ploidy heterogeneity and S-phase fraction (SPF) variability, we prospectively collected five different samples from 48 breast carcinomas and each sample was analysed separately by flow cytometry. Aneuploidy rate was 89.6% after analysis of four or five samples. DNA ploidy heterogeneity, i.e., different samples classified as either DNA euploid or DNA aneuploid in the sa...
متن کاملCombined analysis of DNA ploidy index and N-myc genomic content in neuroblastoma.
The aim of the study was to assess, in a group of nonselected patients with neuroblastoma, the prognostic value of both N-myc gene amplification and DNA ploidy index, taking into account potential confounding factors such as age and stage. Of 59 patients studied, 23 were younger than 1 year at diagnosis, 31 presented with stage IV, 10 with stage III, 5 with stage II, 8 with stage I, and 4 with ...
