No abnormal C-band polymorphism in lung cancer patients.
The C-band heterochromatin polymorphism of chromosomes 1, 9, and 16 was studied in lymphocytes from 52 lung cancer patients and 183 control persons. No significant differences between the controls and patients were found regarding heterochromatin block size, the frequency of partial and total inversions, or the symmetry/asymmetry pattern.
