Chromosome aberrations in field strains of Blattella germanica
… the German cockroach were compared for possible chromosome aberrations. Resistant strain females produced significantly higher numbers of aberrant oothecae ( >5 unhatched eggs ) than the susceptible strains. Chromosome aberrations found in the susceptible strains were attachments …

Fast Monte Carlo Cell-By-Cell Simulation of Radiation-Induced DNA Damage, Chromosome Aberrations, and Cell Death for Low-Dose-Rate Brachytherapy Sources
… of radiation damage to DNA and the resulting chromosome aberrations has enabled studies of cell survival characteristics to be performed via computer simulation. TOPAS, a Monte Carlo based physics modeling tool, contains models of the brachytherapy sources commonly used in radiation therapy …

In-vivo investigation of resveratrol as a preventive for radiation-induced acute myeloid leukemia
… ability to reduce radiation-induced chromosome aberrations and PU.1 gene loss in mouse bone marrow cells. Loss of 1 PU.1 gene and missense mutation of the remaining allele leads to acute myeloid leukemia in CBA mice.

The structure and evolution of breast cancer genomes
Chromosome changes in the haematological malignancies, lymphomas and sarcomas are known to be important events in the evolution of these tumours as they can, for example, form fusion oncogenes or disrupt tumour suppressor genes. The recently described recurrent fusion genes in prostate and lung …

Biological and Functional Consequences of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms of the O6-Methylguanine-DNA-Methyltransferase Gene
… between genetic damage and SNPs in MGMT; chromosome aberrations to examine macrolesions, and mutation frequency to examine microlesions. In addition, we used the luciferase reporter assay to determine effects of SNPs in the promoter/enhancer region of MGMT on promoter activity. Coding SNPs …

Radiation-induced bystander fibroblasts both reduce and amplify micronuclei induction through the reciprocal bystander effect and the secondary bystander effect
… assay was used to analyze the amount of chromosome aberrations present. In the unirradiated secondary bystander population, an increase in percentage of binucleated cells with micronuclei from the background level to approximately the level of the primary bystander cells was observed, …

Inactivation synergy between high energy neutrons and ⁶⁰Co gamma rays
… delay measurements and micronuclear formations. Chromosome aberrations showed synergy between neutron and photon damage in human lymphocytes, as predicted by interaction functi ons. However, the synergistic interaction noted with micronuclear formation in binucleate cells was at variance with …

Dissecting Molecular Mechanisms of Radioresistance Using in Vitro and in Vivo Brain Tumor Model Systems
… as astrocytes show increased radial chromosome aberrations and decreased sister chromatid exchanges after PTEN loss. These results have exciting implications, as it has identified two potential new therapeutic strategies for improving treatment in subsets of GBM patients. The cancer …

Regulation of Rad51D In Homologous Recombination Dna Repair by Alternative Splicing and Ubiquitin Modification
… to repair DNA damage as well as maintain chromosome and telomere stability. In the first study, mouse Rad51d alternative transcript products were found to make specific interactions with RAD51C and XRCC2. In addition, Rad51d alternative transcripts exhibited tissue-specific expression …

Detection of Aneuploidy for Chromosomes 7 and 8 Using Fluorescence <i>In Situ</i> Hybridization in Patients with Aplastic Anemia and Sequencing of the Mitotic Checkpoint Gene hBUB1
… is the current method of choice to evaluate chromosome aberrations. However, fluorescence <em>in situ</em> hybridization (FISH) is more sensitive in detecting these abnormalities.</p> <p><em>hBUB1</em>, a mitotic spindle checkpoint gene, was shown to be mutated in two colorectal cancer cell …

Driver genes associated to Broad Copy Number Aberrations in solid cancers
Large numerical and structural chromosomal aberrations (aneuploidy) are intrinsic features of tumour cells and cell transformation. The chromosomal aberrations are collectively called Broad Copy Number Aberrations (BCNAs) and mainly include aneuploidy (i.e. an incorrect number of one or more …

Trisomies in Hematologic Malignancies
Acquired clonal chromosome aberrations, closely associated with leukemogenesis, are found in many hematologic malignancies. Although the balanced rearrangements, such as translocations and inversions, are the ones most commonly thought of in the context of leukemias, gains of chromosomes ? e.g.., …

Effects of Graphene Oxide in vitro on DNA Damage in Human Whole Blood and Peripheral Blood Lymphocytes from Healthy individuals and Pulmonary Disease Patients: Asthma, COPD, and Lung Cancer
… (DNA damage) and cytogenetic effects (chromosome aberration parameters) induced by GO NMs on human whole blood from healthy individuals and patients were studied using the Alkaline Comet Assay and Cytokinesis-blocked Micronucleus (CBMN) assay, respectively. Our results showed …
