Biogenesis of micronuclei

Biochemistry (Moscow), 2016
The presence of micronuclei in a cell is an indicator of DNA damage and genetic instability. In this review, mechanisms of emergence of micronuclei, their functional activity, and pathways of elimination are discussed. It is supposed that morphological and functional varieties of micronuclei as well as their degradation pathways can be determined by ...

Antioxidant activity of curcumin protects against the radiation-induced micronuclei formation in cultured human peripheral blood lymphocytes exposed to various doses of γ-Radiation

International Journal of Radiation Biology, 2021
Purpose Ionizing radiations trigger the formation of free radicals that damage DNA and cause cell death. DNA damage may be simply evaluated by micronucleus assay and the pharmacophores that impede free radicals could effectively reduce the DNA damage ...

Micronuclei in Human Alveolar Macrophages

Respiration, 1992
Occurrence of micronuclei was monitored in pulmonary alveolar macrophages collected from 31 individuals undergoing diagnostic bronchoalveolar lavage. The overall frequency of micronucleated cells was 3.88 +/- 1.84/1000, without any significant difference attributable to sex, age, pathology, occupation, or smoking habits.

cGAS Conducts Micronuclei DNA Surveillance

Trends in Cell Biology, 2017
DNA damage elicits a potent proinflammatory immune response. A collection of four papers now reveals that micronuclear DNA is a new cell intrinsic immunostimulatory molecule, and that accumulation of the immune sensor cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS) in micronuclei leads to a cell-cycle-dependent proinflammatory response following DNA damage.

Chromium‐induced micronuclei in fish

Journal of Applied Toxicology, 1994
AbstractAn investigation of the cytogenetic effects of chromium (Cr(VI) and Cr(III)) in Prussian carp (Carassius auratus gibelio) was made. For detecting cytogenetic damage, micronuclei induction in fish erythrocyte cells was employed. Fish were investigated 100 m above and 400 m below the discharge of leather waste products into the river Ljubljanica,

Cytokinesis Blocked Micronuclei Aberration Analysis

2022
Cytokinesis blocked micronuclei (CBMN) assay is a rapid and sensitive analysis of chromosome aberrations and miss assortments during cell division. Genotoxic agent exposure produces DNA damage and chromosome fragments. Fragmented chromosomes without centromere failed to attach kinetochore which segregates a pair of homologous chromosomes to each ...

Cinnamaldehyde-induced micronuclei in rodent liver

Mutation Research/Genetic Toxicology, 1994
Cinnamaldehyde, a widely used flavoring agent, has so far been subjected to a limited range of genotoxicity tests, mainly carried out in vitro, which produced contradictory results. Therefore we have examined cinnamaldehyde using additional in vivo genotoxicity end-points.

Chromosome painting of radiation-induced micronuclei

International Journal of Radiation Biology, 1996
In this report, in situ hybridization with whole chromosome painting probes was used to paint radiation-induced micronuclei (MN) in three lymphoblastoid cells lines to investigate the frequency of radiation-induced MN. The results obtained for four different chromosomes showed that there was a significant deviation of the numbers of signal-positive MN ...

Transient hypothermia induces micronuclei in mice

Mutation Research/Genetic Toxicology and Environmental Mutagenesis, 1998
We investigated the effect of hypothermia on micronucleus induction in mouse bone marrow cells. To induce hypothermia, we administered chlorpromazine, which was negative in an in vitro chromosome aberration test, at 3.13, 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50, and 100 mg/kg intraperitoneally.

Micronuclei in X-irradiated human lymphocytes

Mutation Research - Fundamental and Molecular Mechanisms of Mutagenesis, 1988
The dose-effect relationship of the frequency of micronuclei in cytokinesis-blocked human lymphocytes after in vitro irradiation of whole blood in the range from 0.2 to 4 Gy was studied. The linear-quadratic response obtained offers a useful technique for dose assessments in cases of radiation injuries above approx. 0.1 Gy whole body dose.
