Clinicopathological analysis of near-tetraploidy/tetraploidy acute myeloid leukaemia [PDF]
AimsNear-tetraploidy/tetraploidy (NT/T) is a rare cytogenetic alteration in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). NT/T-AML is categorised as complex cytogenetics and therefore, presumed to have an unfavourable prognosis. Our aim is to further characterise the clinical, morphological, cytogenetic and prognostic features of NT/T-AML.MethodsWe searched our ...

Induction to tetraploidy in Pacific oysters (Crassostrea gigas)
As an alternative to the use of cytochalasin B (CB), 6-dimethylamino-purine (6-DMAP) and thermal shock (heat shock by increasing the temperature from 25 to 36ºC) could be used to induce tetraploidy in Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) diploids ...

Loss of APC induces polyploidy as a result of a combination of defects in mitosis and apoptosis [PDF]
Mutations in the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) tumor suppressor gene initiate a majority of colorectal cancers. Acquisition of chromosomal instability is an early event in these tumors.

Molecular cytogenetic differentiation of paralogs of Hox paralogs in duplicated and re-diploidized genome of the North American paddlefish (Polyodon spathula). [PDF]
BackgroundAcipenseriformes is a basal lineage of ray-finned fishes and comprise 27 extant species of sturgeons and paddlefishes. They are characterized by several specific genomic features as broad ploidy variation, high chromosome numbers, presence of ...

Pregnancy outcome following prenatal diagnosis of chromosomal anomaly: a record linkage study of 26,261 pregnancies [PDF]
Previous studies have demonstrated the influence of changes in the age at which women give birth, and of developments in prenatal screening and diagnosis on the number of pregnancies diagnosed and terminated with chromosomal anomalies.

Cytokinesis in Eukaryotic Cells: The Furrow Complexity at a Glance
The duplication cycle is the fascinating process that, starting from a cell, results in the formation of two daughter cells and it is essential for life.

Tetraploidy and tumor development [PDF]
In tumorigenesis, aneuploidy is frequently preceded by tetraploidy. Major issues include how tetraploidy arises and how cells can effectively respond to this state. Two recent papers address these issues. Shi and King demonstrate that nondisjunction of chromosomes in mitosis frequently results in tetraploidy through mitotic cleavage failure.

The fate of Arabidopsis thaliana homeologous CNSs and their motifs in the Paleohexaploid Brassica rapa. [PDF]
Following polyploidy, duplicate genes are often deleted, and if they are not, then duplicate regulatory regions are sometimes lost. By what mechanism is this loss and what is the chance that such a loss removes function?
