Infrared spectroscopy of human tissue. I. Differentiation and maturation of epithelial cells in the human cervix

Infrared spectral results for the different epithelial layers of human cervical squamous tissue are reported. The layers, representing different cellular maturation stages, exhibit quite different spectral patterns. Thus, infrared spectroscopy presents a powerful tool to monitor cell maturation and...

Zusammenfassung:Infrared spectral results for the different epithelial layers of human cervical squamous tissue are reported. The layers, representing different cellular maturation stages, exhibit quite different spectral patterns. Thus, infrared spectroscopy presents a powerful tool to monitor cell maturation and differentiation. Furthermore, a detailed understanding of the spectra of the individual layers of tissue permit a proper interpretation of the state of health of cells exfoliated from such tissue. Part II of this series describes the use of the spectral information presented here to interpret the infrared spectra of exfoliated cells. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
