The incidence of structural chromosome aberrations and the rate of sister chromatid exchanges (SCE) was investigated in lymphocyte cultures from a patient with typical Fanconi's anemia and his parents. The rate of SCEs was found to be normal. In experiments with the alkylating agent Trenimon the SCE

The frequency of sister chromatid exchanges (SCE) and chromosome aberrations and the dynamics of cell division in peripheral blood lymphocytes of four patients with Fanconi's anemia were studied after in vitro exposure to alkylating agents TEPA and mitomycin. SCE frequency was significantly increase
The distribution of chromosome breaks induced by the antitumor drug cis-diamine-dichloroplatinum (II) in lymphocyte cultures from Fanconi anemia patients was analyzed. Breakpoints occurred nonrandomly over an arbitrarily defined human karyotype of 319 bands. These bands were classified according to
