A combined strategy of conventional cytogenetics, fluorescent in situ hybridization and microsatellite polymerase chain reaction to analyze the deletion of chromosome 6 in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma
Abstract:Abstract. Laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) is a common cancer of the upper respiratory tract. The cytogenetic and molecular events involved in the pathogenesis of LSCC are not well understood. In this study, a combined strategy of conventional cytogenetics, fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) and microsatellite polymerase chain reaction was performed to analyze the deletion of chromosome 6 in LSCC. Karyotype analysis indicated that the deletions of 6q were marker chromosomes potentially specific t… Show more
