In this study, NOR patterns of skin cancers were performed in the search of a valuable prognostic method to complement other histological procedures.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Methods:\u2002<\/jats:bold> Paraffin\u2010embedded tumor tissue was obtained from basal and squamous cell carcinomas, cutaneous malignant melanoma, premalignant lesions, and Skmel\u201028 human melanoma cells. Slices were dewaxed and AgNOR stained. The patterns were scored and submitted for statistical analyses.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:\u2002<\/jats:bold> All types of cancer cells showed variable numbers of abnormally shaped nucleoli and dot\u2010like structures. Only tumor cells presented four or more nucleoli, with or without dots, while 85% of the normal cells had one single NOR without dots. Most data were statistically significant when compared to normal cells. As a whole, squamous cell carcinoma and malignant melanoma tumor cells had less NOR alterations than basal cell carcinoma (BCC) tumor types.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusions:\u2002<\/jats:bold> Changes in the number and shape of nucleoli present in malignant cells could be attributed to increased levels on rDNA transcription on cancer cells, besides abnormal remodeling of chromatin, which could disrupt proper nucleoli association. Increased genetic alterations on malignant basal cells could contribute to impair invasive and migration abilities of BCC tumors.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.0303-6987.2005.00322.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,4,5]],"date-time":"2005-04-05T11:31:49Z","timestamp":1112700709000},"page":"323-328","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Nucleolar organizer region staining patterns in paraffin\u2010embedded tissue cells from human skin cancers"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"32","author":[{"given":"Rosana F.","family":"Rom\u00e3o\u2010Corr\u00eaa","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Durvanei A.","family":"Maria","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mithitaka","family":"Soma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M\u00edrian N.","family":"Sotto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"suffix":"Jr","given":"Jos\u00e9 Ant\u00f4nio","family":"Sanches","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cyro Festa","family":"Neto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Itamar R.
