Chromothripsis—Explosion in Genetic Science [PDF]
Chromothripsis has been defined as complex patterns of alternating genes copy number changes (normal, gain or loss) along the length of a chromosome or chromosome segment (International System for Human Cytogenomic Nomenclature 2020).

On the Complexity of Mechanisms and Consequences of Chromothripsis: An Update [PDF]
In the present review, we focus on the phenomenon of chromothripsis, a new type of complex chromosomal rearrangements. We discuss the challenges of chromothripsis detection and its distinction from other chromoanagenesis events.

Chromothripsis in Treatment Resistance in Multiple Myeloma [PDF]
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant disease caused by an abnormal proliferation of plasma cells, of which the prognostic factors include chromosomal abnormality, β-2 microglobulin, and albumin. Recently, the term chromothripsis has emerged, which is the

A cell‐based model system links chromothripsis with hyperploidy
A remarkable observation emerging from recent cancer genome analyses is the identification of chromothripsis as a one‐off genomic catastrophe, resulting in massive somatic DNA structural rearrangements (SRs). Largely due to lack of suitable model systems,

Chromosomal Instability Drives Glioblastoma Heterogeneity and Therapeutic Opportunities [PDF]
Glioblastoma, the most aggressive and lethal form of brain cancer, is defined by profound genomic instability, with Chromosomal Instability (CIN) playing a central role in driving tumor progression, therapy resistance, and poor prognosis.

Research progress on chromothripsis and tumorigenesis [PDF]
Chromothripsis is a complex genomic rearrangement event in which localized regions of one or several chromosomes fragment in response to stress (ionizing radiation, chemical stimulation, infection, etc.) and then assembles in random order.

Chromothripsis in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia: A Driving Force of Genome Instability
Chromothripsis represents a mechanism of massive chromosome shattering and reassembly leading to the formation of derivative chromosomes with abnormal functions and expression.

Chromothripsis is associated with unfavourable outcomes in multiple myeloma (MM), but its detection usually requires whole genome sequencing. Here the authors develop an approach to detect chromothripsis in MM based on copy-number signatures that also ...
