Effects of estradiol and progesterone on the variability of the micronucleus assay.

Mutation research - 15 Oct 2005

Baeyens Ans, Vandersickel Veerle, Thierens Hubert, Ridder Leo De, Vral Anne

Abstract excerpt

To investigate chromosomal radiosensitivity of lymphocytes the micronucleus (MN) assay has been used for many years. The results of these studies suggest the use of the MN assay as a biomarker for cancer predisposition. However, the MN assay has still some limitations associated with the reproducibility and sensitivity. Especially a high intra-individual variability has been observed. An explanation for this high...
