The syndrome of abnormal chromatin clumping in leukocytes.
A65-year-old female was admitted to our Institute for anemia-related symptoms. The hematological findings were as follows: Hb 65 g/L, platelet count 45310/L; WBC 18310/L with neutrophils 74%, lymphocytes 8%; monocytes 2%, promyelocytes 2%, myelocytes 12%, metamyelocytes 2%. When observed under the microscope, neutrophils were characterized by loss of segmentation (pelgeroid features) and abnorm...
متن کاملP-117: Methamphetamine Can Induce Sperm Chromatin Abnormality and Apoptosis in Mice
Background: It is showed that methamphetamine has harmful effects on male reproductive system. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of methamphetamine administration on testis weight, sperm count, sperm morphology, and chromatin status as well as sperm apoptotis followed by the cytochemical tests in a mouse model. Materials and Methods: Twenty four NMRI male mice were divided in...
متن کاملP-67: Nano-Selenium Protects Cisplatin-Induced Spermatotoxicty and Chromatin Abnormality Associated with Free Radicals Toxic Stress
Background: Cisplatin (CIS), an anticancer alkylating agent, induces DNA adducts and effectively cross links the DNA strands and so affects spermatozoa as a male reproductive tract toxicant. Materials and Methods: The present study investigated the cellular/biochemical mechanisms underlying possible protective effect of selenium nano-particles (Nano-Se) as an established strong antioxidant with...
متن کاملEmbryonic stem cell differentiation requires full length Chd1
The modulation of chromatin dynamics by ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling factors has been recognized as an important mechanism to regulate the balancing of self-renewal and pluripotency in embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Here we have studied the effects of a partial deletion of the gene encoding the chromatin remodeling factor Chd1 that generates an N-terminally truncated version of Chd1 in mous...
متن کاملP-220: Vitamin E Protects Atrazine-Induced Toxicity in Testes of Mature Male Rats
Background: According to several reports there is a positive correlation between the lowered quality of semen and any exposure to toxic compound specially those particularly disrupt endocrine functions. Like other herbicides atrazine (ATR) induces endocrine disruption and consequently interferes with sexual hormones physiological functions. Therefore current study was designed in order to evalu...
