The γ-H2AX foci as an indicator for double-stranded DNA breaks and response to ongoing chemotherapy in breast cancer women: a pilot study.

Objective: The double-stranded breaks (DSBs) of the DNA can predispose to cancer development. The γH2AX foci have been proposed for prediction of tumor growth and response to radiotherapy. We aimed to evaluate the γ-H2AX foci as an indicator for DSBs and response to ongoing chemotherapy in breast cancer women.

Genetic and clinical characteristics of BRCA-associated hereditary breast cancer in the West region of Kazakhstan.

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women and is cause mortality in many countries. The purpose of this article is to determine the BRCA1 BRCA2 gene mutation polymorphisms, as well as to determine the clinical, histopathological and prognostic characteristics in patients with breast cancer in the western region of Kazakhstan. A study was conducted on the genotyping of 278 patients in the MC ZKMU Marat Ospanov with an established diagnosis of breast cancer, which revealed that out of 278 patients, of three cases were identified.

A clinical case of diagnosis of breast cancer in patients with family history of mutations 1.

Background: The incidence of breast cancer is growing rapidly worldwide (1.7 million new cases and 600,000 deaths per year). Moreover, about 10% of breast cancer cases occur in young women under the age of 45.

[The fluorescence of mouse crystalline lenses at different stages of radiation cataract studied by synchronous scanning].

Fluorescence of intact lenses of F1 (CBA x C57BL6) mice at different stages of X-ray cataract induced by gamma irradiation (5.00 Gr) has been studied by synchronous scanning of fluorescence, the shift between emission and excitation wave lengths being 20 nm. The ratio between peek intensities of the nontryptophan and tryptophan fluorescence within the synchronous scanning spectra (K) has increased 3.
