The loss of Y in normal-appearing tissue was highest in colon, rectum, esophagus, pancreas and lung cancer.A study by Uni of Arizona study, who created detailed maps of bladder tissue removed during cancer surgery. These maps let them see how Y chromosome loss increased from normal bladder tissue through early abnormal cells and into full-blown cancer.So it probably can be used as an early marker for cancer when biopsies return negative. Also studies by Cedars-Sinai Cancer center also points that the loss if Y hampers the body's ability to fight cancer helping the cancer cells to evade the immune system.</blockquote>
