Giemsa versus acridine orange staining in the fish micronucleus assay and validation for use in water quality monitoring [PDF]
This study concerns a comparative analysis of the acridineorange and Giemsastaining procedures for the fish erythrocyte micronucleusassay. The goal was to optimize the assay in the context of field watermonitoring. Fish (Carassius carassius) were exposed

Micronuclei as a predictor for oral carcinogenesis
The aim of the study was to provide a quantitative evaluation of oral mucosal micronuclei (MN) frequency as a biomarker for oral cancer susceptibility in carcinogenesis progression.60 patients were included in the study. 30 patients with biopsy proven epithelial dysplasia (ED, 15) and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC, 15) comprised the study group ...

cGAS surveillance of micronuclei links genome instability to innate immunity [PDF]
DNA is strictly compartmentalized within the nucleus to prevent autoimmunity; despite this, cyclic GMP–AMP synthase (cGAS), a cytosolic sensor of double-stranded DNA, is activated in autoinflammatory disorders and by DNA damage.

Fate of micronuclei and micronucleated cells along with relevance of micronuclei as biomarker
Mikrokerne sind als wichtiger Biomarker in der Gentoxizitätsforschung seit langer Zeit etabliert und ihre Bildung ist mechanistisch gut verstanden, wohingegen das Mikrokernschicksal und die genaue Funktion von Mikrokernen in der Kanzerogenese ...

Genotoxicity in oral mucosal epithelial cells of petrol station attendants: A micronucleus study
Introduction: Occupational exposure to petrol derivatives possesses an increased risk of various cancers including that of the oral mucosa. Scientific studies have shown the correlation of micronuclei assay (MN) with the cytogenotoxic changes in petrol ...

Emergence of micronuclei as a genomic biomarker
AbstractThe presence of micronuclei (MN) in mammalian cells is related to several mutagenetic stresses. MN are formed as a result of chromosome damage and can be readily identified in exfoliated epithelial cells. MN is chromatin particles derived from acentric chromosomal fragments, which are not incorporated into the daughter nucleus after mitosis. It
