Human somatic mutation assays as biomarkers of carcinogenesis.

Environmental health perspectives - 1 Aug 1991

Compton P J, Hooper K, Smith M T

Abstract excerpt

This paper describes four assays that detect somatic gene mutations in humans: the hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl transferase assay, the glycophorin A assay, the HLA-A assay, and the sickle cell hemoglobin assay. Somatic gene mutation can be considered a biomarker of carcinogenesis, and assays for somatic mutation may assist epidemiologists in studies that attempt to identify factors associated with...
