conclusions the high prevalence of hpv in abnormal cytology underlines to the fact that the presence of hpv is a critical factor in the development of cervical cancer. the use of hpv dna techniques could actually become an effective and fast means of ascertaining the presence of hpv in abnormal cytology. results result showed a 100% presence of high risk hpv in all the samples with abnormal cyt...

aim :  to evaluate the association of dnmt1 and mgmt amino acid substitution polymorphisms and colorectal cancer in iranian population. background : the mgmt and dnmt1 are two important methyltransferase enzymes. amino acid substitution polymorphisms in mgmt and dnmt1 genes may be associated with the genetic susceptibility to sporadic colorectal cancer. patients and methods : we assessed eight ...

cell free dnas (cfdnas) are small fragments of genomic or mitochondrial dna releasing from cells into the blood stream. the presence of cfdna in the human circulatory system has been shown for the first time in 1948 however, the potential clinical applications of cfdna remained unknown until recent progress in detection and quantification of these molecules by sensitive methods. in this paper, ...
