| Research Abstract |
We can measure the teIomere length in each cell group on the slide by using our original tissue Q-FISH method. In analysis of oral mucosa, we could confirm that the basal cells have the longest telomeres among the epithelial layer, and that suggests the tissue stem cells are reside in the basal layer. We could also have proved some dysplastic lesions as kinds of carcinoma in situ, because of having short telomeres as same pattern as mucosal carcinomas. The epithelia adjacent to carcinomas or some leukoplakias have significantly short telomeres and chromosomal instabilities, therefore, these lesions might be the true precancerous lesions.
