Fibroid initiation Sample Clauses

Fibroid initiation. In the late 1960s and early 1970s X – linked glucose – 6 – phosphate dehydrogenase isoenzyme analyses revealed that fibroids had consistently one of the two X – chromosomes inactivated as opposed to random inactivation of either X – chromosome. This suggested that these tumours are monoclonal i.e. descended from a single myometrial cell. (Xxxxxx et al. 1965; Xxxxxxxx et al. 1970). More recent studies, using X – chromosome methylation, show that in women with multiple tumours each nodule may arise from different original clones (Xxxxx et al. 2006; Xxx et al. 2007) thereby confirming the monoclonal nature of each tumour. The specific trigger leading to fibroid development remains uncertain. Cytogenetic studies have revealed that a 40 – 50% of fibroids have a chromosomal aberration whilst the rest appear to have normal karyotype. It is suggested therefore that the initial events in fibroid development may be submicroscopic mutations although these have not been established yet (Xxxx et al. 1995).
