Balanced Chromosomal Translocations of Parents in Relation to Spontaneous Abortions
The most significant complication of pregnancy is recurrent miscarriage. Numerous factors have been described as associations with recurrent wastage such as: uterine abnormalities, immunological factors, endocrinologic imbalance and chromosomal defects. Cytogenetic evaluation of couples with recurrent pregnancy losses is performed on the basis of G-banding technique only after other possible et...
متن کاملSwitching on chromosomal translocations.
Activation-induced deaminase initiates three different antibody diversification reactions: class switch recombination, somatic hypermutation (SHM), and gene conversion. We have shown that, in addition to antibody diversification, activation-induced deaminase can also initiate Burkitt's lymphoma-like c-myc/IgH translocations. However, distinct DNA damage- and oncogene-induced checkpoints operate...
متن کاملChromosomal translocations induced at specified loci in human stem cells.
The precise genetic manipulation of stem and precursor cells offers extraordinary potential for the analysis, prevention, and treatment of human malignancies. Chromosomal translocations are hallmarks of several tumor types where they are thought to have arisen in stem or precursor cells. Although approaches exist to study factors involved in translocation formation in mouse cells, approaches in...
متن کاملPhysician's weak points at court.
The Medical Association of Thailand invites its member to attend a meeting on the nation’s medical liability system(1). Since 1973, the number of malpractice suit went up from 250 to over 500 per year. Furthermore, the cost of the medical litigation and each malpractice suit is increasing(2). Besides, each Baht paid in damages is a Baht that otherwise could be spent on patient care, reducing th...
متن کاملMechanisms of Recurrent Chromosomal Translocations
Chromosomal translocations frequently involve fusion of the ends of two separate DNA double-stranded breaks (DSBs) at distinct genomic locations. Recurrent chromosomal translocations are found in various cancers. Recently developed high-throughput approaches to clone genome-wide translocations that involve site-specifi c DSBs have provided new insights into mechanisms of chromosomal translocati...
