Example sentences for: aneuploidy
How can you use “aneuploidy” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Based on studies involving compounds that alter microtubular kinetics and induce both cell-cycle delay and aneuploidy, several groups have proposed that temporal perturbations during mammalian oocyte maturation (OM) predispose oocytes to aneuploidy [ 3 4 5 6 ] . In addition to faulty microtubule kinetics, perturbations during OM may also stem from abnormal function of centrosomes, kinetochores, spindle checkpoints proteins, the anaphase-promoting complex (APC), the securin-separin-cohesion complex proteins, and the proteasome [ 7 ] .
The origin of single, unpaired chromatids in MII oocytes has been proposed to result from premature separation of sister chromatids prior to anaphase I [ 56 57 ] . The possibility exists that both SC and aneuploidy may have originated from PCS of homologues and sister chromatids during the MAT of meiosis I. Upon removal of MG-132 from the culture media during meiosis I and the subsequent resumption of OM and proteasomal activity, faulty kinetochore-microtubule attachment accompanied by degradation of cohesion proteins could conceivably lead to PCS of homologues and sister chromatids.
Although numerous hypotheses have been proposed to describe the etiology of aneuploidy in human gametes, the only steadfast association remains maternal age [ 1 2 ] . Besides this association, very little information is available about the numerous potential mechanisms that may disrupt normal chromosome segregation in oocytes.
It may not be coincidental that BRCA1 -mutant breast cancers are preferentially linked to a 'specific' histopathologic pattern that includes a high S-phase fraction of cells, aneuploidy, and hormone receptor-negative status [ 45].
It had been noted [ 52] that the aneuploidies that are compatible with survival until birth (trisomies 13,18 and 21, as well as X and Y aneuploidy) appeared to occur in relatively gene-poor chromosomes.
