Chromothripsis and DNA Repair Disorders [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine, 2020
Chromothripsis is a mutational mechanism leading to complex and relatively clustered chromosomal rearrangements, resulting in diverse phenotypic outcomes depending on the involved genomic landscapes.

The elusive evidence for chromothripsis [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2014
The chromothripsis hypothesis suggests an extraordinary one-step catastrophic genomic event allowing a chromosome to 'shatter into many pieces' and reassemble into a functioning chromosome.

Chromothripsis and the Macroevolution Theory.

open access: yes, 2018
International audienceThe recent discovery of a new class of massive chromosomal rearrangements, occurring during one unique cellular event and baptized "chromothripsis," deeply modifies our perception on the genesis of complex genomic rearrangements ...

Mapping the chromothripsis landscape in urothelial carcinoma unravels great intratumoral and intertumoral heterogeneity

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Chromothripsis, a hallmark of cancer, is characterized by extensive and localized DNA rearrangements involving one or a few chromosomes. However, its genome-wide frequency and characteristics in urothelial carcinoma (UC) remain largely unknown ...

Criteria for Inference of Chromothripsis in Cancer Genomes [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2013
Chromothripsis scars the genome when localized chromosome shattering and repair occurs in a one-off catastrophe. Outcomes of this process are detectable as massive DNA rearrangements affecting one or a few chromosomes.

The Genomic Characteristics and Origin of Chromothripsis

open access: yes, 2018
International audienceIn 2011 a phenomenon involving complex chromosomal rearrangements was discovered in cancer genomes. This phenomenon has been termed chromothripsis, on the basis of its chromosomal hallmarks, which point to an underlying process ...

Chromothripsis in Oncology: Literature Review and Case Report [PDF]

open access: yesКлиническая онкогематология, 2017
The article presents a clinical case and literature review dwelling on the recently discovered chromothripsis phenomenon in oncology. Chromothripsis is a type of complex genome changes when a chromosome is first torn into dozens and even thousands of ...

Complex Chromothripsis-like Features in Plasma Cell Myeloma: A Case Report and Review of the Literature [PDF]

open access: yesDiagnostics
Background and Clinical Significance: Chromothripsis represents a catastrophic genomic event in plasma cell myeloma (PCM) associated with poor prognosis. We report a case of newly diagnosed PCM with complex cytogenetic abnormalities indicative of genomic

Cancer cells’ chamber of secrets: the link between micronuclei, chromothripsis and malignancy [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology
Micronuclei exhibit defective proteomes rendering their chromatin vulnerable to fragmentation. This fragmentation process, known as chromothripsis, promotes tumorigenesis by catalysing the activation of oncogenes and the silencing of tumor suppressors ...
