The Neoplastic Cell and its Analysis by Cell Hybridization: 1. The Nature of the Transformation Process and its Markers, 2. Analysis of Transformation by Cell Hybridization

  • Chapter
Gene Expression in Normal and Transformed Cells

Abstract

There is no absolute marker for neoplastic transformation, particularly for cells in vitro. To understand the reasons for this it is necessary to understand the series of changes which takes place during the process of neoplasia (see 1 for extensive general review).
