Accurate chromosome segregation by probabilistic self-organization [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Biology 2015 13:65, 2014
Background: For faithful chromosome segregation during cell division, correct attachments must be established between sister chromosomes and microtubules from opposite spindle poles through kinetochores (chromosome bi-orientation). Incorrect attachments of kinetochore microtubules (kMTs) lead to chromosome mis-segregation and aneuploidy, which is often

Replication stress links structural and numerical cancer chromosomal instability

open access: yesNature, 2013
Cancer chromosomal instability (CIN) results in an increased rate of change of chromosome number and structure and generates intratumour heterogeneity. CIN is observed in most solid tumours and is associated with both poor prognosis and drug resistance ...

Chromatin and chromosomes

open access: yesMolecular Biology of the Cell, 2011
Recent advances in our understanding of chromosome behavior have been made possible by the development of cutting-edge cytological and molecular techniques. Presentations in this Minisymposium applied these techniques to a diverse set of topics. Sarah Elgin (Washington University) described her lab’s studies on the 1360 transposable element in ...

Clinical applications of next‐generation sequencing‐based ctDNA analyses in breast cancer: defining treatment targets and dynamic changes during disease progression

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) offers a possibility for different applications in early and late stage breast cancer management. In early breast cancer tumor informed approaches are increasingly used for detecting molecular residual disease (MRD) and early recurrence. In advanced stage, ctDNA provides a possibility for monitoring disease progression and

Genetic counseling for a prenatal diagnosis of structural chromosomal abnormality with high-resolution analysis using a single nucleotide polymorphism microarray

open access: yesClinics and Practice, 2016
A 41-year old pregnant woman underwent amniocentesis to conduct a conventional karyotyping analysis; the analysis reported an abnormal karyotype: 46,XY,add(9)(p24). Chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) is utilized in prenatal diagnoses.

Sperm and Oocyte Chromosomal Abnormalities

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2023
Gametogenesis, the process of producing gametes, differs significantly between oocytes and sperm. Most oocytes have chromosomal aneuploidies, indicating that chromosomal aberrations in miscarried and newborn infants are of oocyte origin. Conversely, most

AutoKary2022: A Large-Scale Densely Annotated Dataset for Chromosome Instance Segmentation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Automated chromosome instance segmentation from metaphase cell microscopic images is critical for the diagnosis of chromosomal disorders (i.e., karyotype analysis). However, it is still a challenging task due to lacking of densely annotated datasets and the complicated morphologies of chromosomes, e.g., dense distribution, arbitrary orientations, and ...

Cell‐free and extracellular vesicle microRNAs with clinical utility for solid tumors

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cell‐free microRNAs (cfmiRs) are small‐RNA circulating molecules detectable in almost all body biofluids. Innovative technologies have improved the application of cfmiRs to oncology, with a focus on clinical needs for different solid tumors, but with emphasis on diagnosis, prognosis, cancer recurrence, as well as treatment monitoring.
