The expression of folate sensitive common fragile sites was investigated in 82 normal healthy males and females of various ages. In 100 studied metaphases of each of these controls, between 0 and 56 lesions were detected (mean 18.3 +/- 10.3 SD). No significant difference was found between the mean n
In a comparison of 80 common aphidicolin-induced fragile sites (FS) between 26 DSM-IV Tourette syndrome (TS) and 24 control individuals, the mean of the summed break frequencies following mild aphidicolin pretreatment was significantly higher in TS individuals than in controls (P < 0.001). Other bre
It has been suggested that fragile sites on human chromosomes predispose to specific rearrangements seen in cancer. Renal cell carcinoma is characterised by recurrent aberrations of chromosome 3p and frequent rearrangements of chromosome 5q. To investigate whether there might be an association betwe
A correlation between specific fragile sites and cancer breakpoints has been suggested raising the question of fragile site expression as a predisposing factor in the occurrence of cancer in some persons. Before addressing the question of increased fragility among patients at high risk for cancer, w
