During karyokinesis, chromosomes are driven by microtubules (MTs) to the metaphase plate and, once aligned, they are pulled towards the cell poles (Kline‐Smith & Walczak, 2004). MTs are also involved ...

Ryotaro Hashizume and colleagues from Mie University in Japan report that it is possible to cut away the surplus chromosome in affected cells, which appears to bring their behavior closer to typical ...

Researchers from the University of Arizona have unveiled that coordinated Y chromosome loss in both cancer cells and immune cells may explain the worse prognosis in people with this alteration. The ...

AESC’s $1.6B electric vehicle battery plant in Florence, SC, pauses due to market and policy uncertainties, delaying 1,600 future jobs for the region.

The loss of the Y chromosome in tumour cells is linked to poor outcomes for people with cancer 1, but this genetic alteration might also compromise immune cells that would otherwise fight the ...

The cancer cells of some men feature a striking mutation: their Y chromosome is missing altogether. Now, tantalizing research suggests that this mutation can spread ‘contagiously’ from tumour ...
