Trimodal cytological integration of micronuclei assay, argyrophilic nucleolar organizer region staining, and cytomorphometry enhances diagnostic discrimination of canine gingival masses [PDF]
Background and Aim: Canine gingival masses are common oral lesions with variable biological behavior, ranging from reactive hyperplasia to malignant neoplasia.

DNA content, repeatome composition and origin of the Zea mays micronuclei [PDF]
Micronuclei originate from DNA damage generated by clastogenic and/or by aneugenic effects. Depending on the pattern of damage, they may have distinct genomic origin and composition.

Association Between Genotoxic Effects of Ageing Dental Restorations and Micronuclei in Oral Mucosal Cells [PDF]
Background and Objectives: Dental restorations can be composed of various materials, including amalgams and methacrylate-based resins. The health risks associated with the components of the restorative materials have always been a concern, even more so ...

The micronucleus is known to be a biomarker for genomic instability, which is a hallmark of tumors and aging. Normally, micronuclei are produced by segregation errors and mechanical stresses arising from dividing or migrating cells, leading to activation

Micronuclei, reproduction and child health [PDF]
The current review looks for relationships between results from biomarker studies with micronucleus and health effects related to reproduction and children. In adults, an age related increase in MN is well known as well as associations with environmental exposures especially air pollution from traffic and smoking.

Emergence of micronuclei and their effects on the fate of cells under replication stress. [PDF]
The presence of micronuclei in mammalian cells is related to several mutagenetic stresses. In order to understand how micronuclei emerge, behave in cells, and affect cell fate, we performed extensive time-lapse microscopy of HeLa H2B-GFP cells in the ...

Atypical monoblasts with micronuclei [PDF]
![Figure][1] A 61-year-old woman with a history of hepatic hemangioma and cholecystectomy developed epigastric pain for several weeks. Her blood tests showed hemoglobin 74 g/L, platelets 127 × 109/L, and white blood cells 104.6 × 109/L with 51% monoblasts.

Micronuclei and pesticide exposure [PDF]
Micronucleus (MN) is a biomarker widely used in biomonitoring studies carried out to determine the genetic risk associated to pesticide exposure. Many in vitro and in vivo studies, as well as epidemiological approaches, have demonstrated the ability of certain chemical pesticides to produce genetic effects including cancer and other chronic pathologies

Autophagic removal of micronuclei [PDF]
Macroautophagy is known to participate in the quality control and turnover of cytoplasmic organelles, yet there is little evidence that macroautophagy targets nuclei in mammalian cells. Here, we investigated whether autophagy may target micronuclei, which arise as a result of deficient bipolar chromosome segregation in cells exposed to cell cycle ...

Incidence of micronuclei in pregnant women and cord blood samples before and after the bombing of Serbia [PDF]
BACKGROUND: This study provides the data regarding monitoring of population using CB-micronuclei assay in the period 1995-2001 in Serbia. The target groups consisted of 45 pregnant women of mean age 34.3(6.56) years, unaware of being exposed to chemicals
