Normal frequency of structural chromosome aberrations in fibroblasts from patients with non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma
The incidence of chromosome aberrations, i.e., chromatid and chromosome gaps, breaks, and exchanges, was studied in cultured skin fibroblasts from 25 untreated patients with non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) and 26 controls. The mean frequencies of aberrant cells, and gap, break, and gap+break events per 100 metaphases were 4.2, 1.9, 2.8, and 4.7 in the NHL group, and 5.1, 2.6, 3.2, and 5.8 in the cont
