Enhanced chromosomal fragility in neuroblastoma: correlation with poor prognosis.

Abstract:

:In a previous study we demonstrated spontaneous fragility and hypersensitivity to fragile site induction by aphidicolin in lymphocytes from some neuroblastoma patients and their parents. Here we report data based on a total of 40 patients and 37 families. Possible correlations between higher sensitivity to aphidicolin and a variety of personal and clinical characteristics were verified. Patients with a poor prognosis generally proved to be more susceptible to fragile site induction.
