We applied Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization to DNA-diploid head and neck squamous cell carcinomas to detect numerical chromosomal aberrations. Using centromeric repetitive probes of chromosomes 1, 7, 11, 17, X, and Y, we detected numerical aberrations of chromosomes in 4 of the 7 tumors examined, the main line of one tumor showed trisomy 1, while the other 3 tumors had subpopulations that showed trisomy or monosomy of 1 or 2 chromosomes examined. We found polyploidy by cytofluorometry in all 4 tumors with numerical chromosomal aberrations. These results suggest that from DNA-diploid tumors with polyploidy, subpopulation that are aneuploid at the chromosome level may arise before the ploidy of the main line shifts to over DNA-aneuploidy.

D005434 Flow Cytometry Technique using an instrument system for making, processing, and displaying one or more measurements on individual cells obtained from a cell suspension. Cells are usually stained with one or more fluorescent dyes specific to cell components of interest, e.g., DNA, and fluorescence of each cell is measured as it rapidly transverses the excitation beam (laser or mercury arc lamp). Fluorescence provides a quantitative measure of various biochemical and biophysical properties of the cell, as well as a basis for cell sorting. Other measurable optical parameters include light absorption and light scattering, the latter being applicable to the measurement of cell size, shape, density, granularity, and stain uptake.

D017404 In Situ Hybridization, Fluorescence A type of IN SITU HYBRIDIZATION in which target sequences are stained with fluorescent dye so their location and size can be determined using fluorescence microscopy. This staining is sufficiently distinct that the hybridization signal can be seen both in metaphase spreads and in interphase nuclei.
