Article Title: Detection of cell-cycle stage by fluorescence in situ hybridization: Its application in human interphase cytogenetics
Abstract: Distinct cell-cycle-dependent changes in the conformation of centromeric chromatin in a specific human chromosome containing a-satellite DNA have been demonstrated by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). This method, based upon specific FISH signal morphology, allows simultaneous analysis of chromosomal aneuploidy and detection of specific cell-cycle stage(s) of human tumor and/or normal cell populations in a single preparation of interphase cells. This interphase cytogenetic procedure might prove useful for both basic and clinical research involving human cells. © 1992 S. Karger AG, Basel.
