Chromosomes trapped in micronuclei are liable to segregation errors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
DNA in micronuclei is likely to get damaged. When shattered DNA from micronuclei gets reincorporated into the primary nucleus, aberrant rearrangements can take place, a phenomenon referred to as chromothripsis.

A deep learning workflow for quantification of Micronuclei in DNA damage studies in cultured cancer cell lines: a proof of principle investigation

open access: yes, 2023
The cytokinesis block micronucleus assay is widely used for measuring/scoring/counting micronuclei, a marker of genome instability in cultured and primary cells. Though a gold standard method, this is a laborious and time-consuming process with person-to-

Enhancement of Micronuclei Frequency in the Tradescantia/Micronuclei Test Using a Long Recovery Time [PDF]

open access: yesHereditas, 2004
The Tradescantia/micronuclei test (TRAD/MCN) is a well-validated test for monitoring environmental genotoxicants. These pollutants induce at the early meiotic stage of pollen mother cells chromosome fragments which become micronuclei at the tetrad stage.

Association of CHMP4B and autophagy with micronuclei : implications for cataract formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Autophagy is a mechanism of cellular self-degradation that is very important for cellular homeostasis and differentiation. Components of the endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) machinery are required for endosomal sorting and also ...

Micronuclei, reproduction and child health

open access: yesMutation Research/Reviews in Mutation Research, 2021
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.

Rapid and automatic detection of micronuclei in binucleated lymphocytes image

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Cytokinesis block micronucleus (CBMN) assay is a widely used radiation biological dose estimation method. However, the subjectivity and the time-consuming nature of manual detection limits CBMN for rapid standard assay. The CBMN analysis is combined with

cGAS localizes in DNA damage induced micronuclei.

open access: yes, 2022
Micronuclei formation in HPV positive cells and cGAS co-localization (left panel) post etoposide treatment for 24hrs at 50μM. Quantitation of micronuclei from three independent experiments and two different clones of CIN612 pLenti control or cGAS-KO ...

Buccal mucosa micronuclei counts in relation to exposure to low dose-rate radiation from the Chornobyl nuclear accident and other medical and occupational radiation exposures

open access: yesEnvironmental Health, 2017
Background Ionizing radiation is a well-known carcinogen. Chromosome aberrations, and in particular micronuclei represent an early biological predictor of cancer risk.

Paternal cyclophosphamide exposure induces the formation of functional micronuclei during the first zygotic division. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Paternal exposures to cancer chemotherapeutics or environmental chemicals may have adverse effects on progeny outcome that are manifested in the preimplantation embryo.

The Carcinogenic Properties of Overlooked yet Prevalent Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Human Lung Epithelial Cells

open access: yesToxics, 2022
The WHO classified air pollution as a human lung carcinogen and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are components of both indoor (e.g., tobacco smoke and cookstoves) and outdoor (e.g., wildfires and industrial and vehicle emissions) air pollution ...
