Dysfunctional telomeres in primary cells from Fanconi anemia FANCD2 patients
1 Jan 2012
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Fanconi anemia (FA) is characterized by sensitivity to DNA cross-linking agents, mild cellular, and marked clinical radio sensitivity. In this study we investigated telomeric abnormalities of non-immortalized primary cells (lymphocytes and fibroblasts) derived from FA patients of the FA-D2 complementation group, which provides a more accurate physiological assessment than is possible with transformed...
