摘要 |
<p>The present invention demonstrates the differential sensitivity of PBLs from lung cancer patients and healthy controls to NNK-induced genetic damage. The data provide convincing evidence that the preferred CBMN assay is a robust test for detection of this sensitivity and yields results that are a good predictor of, for example, lung cancer risk. The simplicity, rapidity, and sensitivity of the CBMN test make it a valuable tool for screening and, for example, prioritizing potential cases for early detection of the disease.</p> |
