In situ Apoptotic and Proliferation Index in Laryngeal Squamous Cell Carcinomas

The rate of cellular growth is mainly influenced by the balance between cell proliferation and cellular decay. Since to our knowledge, no study so far has analysed the rate of proliferation and apoptosis in the normal laryngeal mucosa and in invasive laryngeal carcinomas, we performed a morphologica...

description The rate of cellular growth is mainly influenced by the balance between cell proliferation and cellular decay. Since to our knowledge, no study so far has analysed the rate of proliferation and apoptosis in the normal laryngeal mucosa and in invasive laryngeal carcinomas, we performed a morphological analysis on both parameters in biopsies from 30 patients with laryngeal carcinoma. We applied the TUNEL end labelling technique for the investigation of apoptosis and immunohistochemistry (Ki‐67 antigen) for the determination of the cell proliferation.
