Abnormal cleavage patterns in equine in vitro‐produced embryos lead to higher early pregnancy loss
Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Summary Background Despite significant advances, in vitro production (IVP) of equine embryos continues to lack standardised embryo classification criteria and is associated with increased rates of early pregnancy loss compared with in vivo‐derived blastocysts.

Progeny of Germ Line Knockouts of \u3cem\u3eASI2\u3c/em\u3e, a Gene Encoding a Putative Signal Transduction Receptor in \u3cem\u3eTetrahymena Thermophila\u3c/em\u3e, Fail to Make the Transition from Sexual Reproduction to Vegetative Growth [PDF]
, 2006 The ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena has two nuclei: a germ line micronucleus and a somatic macronucleus. The transcriptionally active macronucleus has about 50 copies of each chromosome.

A novel splice variant of the DNA-PKcs gene is associated with clinical and cellular radiosensivity in a patient with xeroderma pigmentosum [PDF]
, 2010 Background: Radiotherapy-induced DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are critical cytotoxic lesions. Inherited defects in DNA DSB repair pathways lead to hypersensitivity to ionising radiation, immunodeficiency and increased cancer incidence.

WR-2721: Inhibitor of cisplatin-induced micronuclei
Teratogenesis, Carcinogenesis, and Mutagenesis, 2000 The modulatory effect of S-2-/3-aminopropylamino/ethyl-phosphorothioic acid, (WR-2721, Amifostine) on induction of micronuclei by cis-diamminedichloroplatinum[II] (CDDP) was studied. The adult, male Swiss mice were treated with WR-2721, at a dose of 200 mg/kg or 400 mg/kg body weight, and/or with CDDP, at a dose 5 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg body weight. WR-2721

Microplastic Impacts on Seafood: A Global Synthesis of Experimental Findings
Fish and Fisheries, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plastic pollution is a growing global concern, with plastic and microplastic particles now widespread in aquatic environments. Microplastics are frequently ingested by marine organisms, including commercially important seafood species. Ingestion can lead to a range of biological effects, influenced by the size, type and quantity of plastic, as

Technical note on cytokinesis-arrested binucleated cell and micronucleus assay
Journal of Radiation and Cancer Research, 2017 Conventionally, many biomarkers are being in use as a measure to genotoxicity in occupational exposure to chemicals, pesticides, radiation, and drug screening. Of which, the micronucleus assay is a preferred choice for many of those applications owing to

Laser Microirradiation of Chinese Hamster Cells at Wavelength 365 nm [PDF]
, 1981 Cells of a V79 subline of the Chinese hamster were microirradiated at wavelength 365 nm in the presence of the psoralen derivative, trioxsalen. Microirradiation was accomplished by a pulsed argon laser microbeam either in anaphase or in interphase 3 hr ...
