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

PARG silencing decreased BaP-induced micronuclei formation.
Representative photo micrographs were shown as following: A, Normal mononucleated (m), binucleated (b), andtrinucleated (t) cells without micronuclei (100×). B, Binucleated cell without micronuclei (1000×). C, Multiple micronuclei (arrows) in binucleated

Chromosomal Instability Drives Glioblastoma Heterogeneity and Therapeutic Opportunities
ABSTRACT Glioblastoma, the most aggressive and lethal form of brain cancer, is defined by profound genomic instability, with Chromosomal Instability (CIN) playing a central role in driving tumor progression, therapy resistance, and poor prognosis. CIN is characterized by numerical and structural alterations, is driven by mechanisms such as mitotic ...

Evaluation of genotoxic effect of amalgam restorations in oral cavity
Background: Mercury a popular heavy metal used in dentistry in the form of amalgam is a known clastogen. The assessment of micronuclei in cells is a promising tool for studying the genotoxic effect of mercury on them.

Chromothripsis—Explosion in Genetic Science
Chromothripsis has been defined as complex patterns of alternating genes copy number changes (normal, gain or loss) along the length of a chromosome or chromosome segment (International System for Human Cytogenomic Nomenclature 2020).

Unraveling the Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Spontaneous Multipolar Mitosis Through CIN‐seq
Multipolar mitosis, a hallmark of chromosomal instability (CIN), drives tumor heterogeneity but is challenging to study in live cells. Using CIN‐seq, a single‐cell multiomics method, we profiled rare CIN events and identified mechanisms associated with viable multipolar mitosis, including PTEN attenuation, Rho GTPase‐driven cytokinesis failure, and ...

DNA content, repeatome composition and origin of the Zea mays micronuclei
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.

Modulation of apoptosis against P. falciparum by low dose radiation in human PBMCs
Background: Implications of low dose radiation (LDR) have been well reported in cancer therapy but data is scanty on the therapeutic application of LDR in infectious diseases. Methodology: Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were cultured

Carassius auratus as a novel model for the hyperglycemia study [PDF]
The aim of the present study was to create a suitable model of the glucose toxicity and elucidate the ability of zinc-binding proteins metallothioneins in the crucian carp Carassius auratus to reflect it.
