The expression of common fragile sites induced by aphidicolin and caffeine was evaluated on prometaphase obtained from the peripheral blood lymphocytes of 35 women with breast cancer, their 35 clinically healthy female family members, and 20 sex-and age-matched normal controls. As a result of the cy
## Abstract Common fragile sites (CFS) are large, genomically unstable regions, which are hotβspots for deletions and other alterations, especially in cancer cells. Several have been shown to contain genes that span large genomic regions, such as __FHIT__ (1.5 Mb), __WWOX__ (1.0 Mb), __GRID2__ (1.3
