Özet

Nucleolar organizer regions are DNA segments concerned with the synthesis of ribosomal RNA (rRNA). Some specific proteins related to NORs can be demonstrated by a silver technique and are then referred to as Ag-NORs. The mean number of Ag-NORs per cell has been used as a marker of cell proliferation in recent years and there is some evidence to suggest that Ag-NOR counts can be used to differentiate between normal and neoplastic cells.
