Micronuclei may originate from acentric chromosome fragments or whole chromosomes lagging behind during cell division. |
We have noticed that multiple clones carried an aberrant chromosome III that was indistinguishable by size. |
No chromosome aberrations were found in human spermatozoa in vitro exposed to several chemicals, including dioxin. |
Genetic factors such as parental chromosome abnormalities are a major known cause which should be looked for. |
No consistent chromosome aberrations have been identified in basophilic leukemia. |
This appears to be consistent with a lower than normal level of recombination in this chromosome. |
