## BACKGROUND. Iodine-nonreactive lesions of esophageal epithelium often are associated with dysplasia and carcinoma. The authors examined the usefulness of telomerase activity as an indicator for esophageal carcinogenesis in such lesions.

## Abstract Chronic alcohol consumption is a major risk factor for esophageal cancer. Various mechanisms may mediate carcinogenesis including the genotoxic effect of acetaldehyde and oxidative stress. Ethanol exerts its carcinogenic effect in the liver among others __via__ the induction of cytochro
## BACKGROUND. The DNA topoisomerase II-alpha (topo II-alpha)-targeting drug etoposide was recently shown to be an active agent in the combined chemotherapy of hormoneinsensitive prostatic carcinoma. Aside from being the molecular target of etoposide, topo II-alpha is also a cell proliferation mark
## BACKGROUND. Making a morphologic distinction between benign and malignant melanocytic tumors of the skin is frequently difficult, especially because "gray zones" between these lesions often exist. DNA image cytometry as an adjuvant method for the diagnosis and prognostic prediction of premaligna
The alkaline single cell gel electrophoresis (SCG test or comet assay) was used to characterize the influence of sodium arsenite (NaAsO?) and cadmium sulphate (CdS04) on the persistence of mutagen-induced DNA lesions. Human blood and SV40transformed fibroblasts (MRCSCVI ) were treated for 2 hr with
