Abstract
The frequency of sister chromatid exchange (SCE) was investigated in 13 women with cervical cancer together with 11 control women. The SCE frequencies were found to be 10.05 +/- 2.35 and 6.95 +/- 1.53 in cancer cases and controls, respectively. The SCE values of cancer cases deviate significantly from that of controls. The SCE in chromosome groups E, F, and G was found to be more in comparison to controls (P less than 0.001). This preliminary study indicates the possibility of using SCE as a preclinical marker.Entities:
