Limiting the Proliferation of Polyploid Cells
نویسندگان
چکیده
Many errors in cell division lead to failure of cytokinesis and the generation of tetraploid cells. Given that tetraploidy can have deleterious consequences, such as genetic instability, we discuss the mechanisms that may have evolved to directly or indirectly prevent the proliferation of these cells.

Polyploid Induction in Viola acuminata Ledebour using Colchicine
This study was aimed to obtain polyploid plants of viola (Viola acuminata Ledebour) using the antimitotic agent colchicine. Experiments consisted in using colchicine on ungerminated seeds. The seeds were plunged into colchicine solutions in concentrations of 0.01, 0.05, 0.10 and 0.20% for 24 and 48 h. Polyploidy levels (diploid, tetraploid and hexaploid) were firstly detected by chromo...
متن کاملEvaluation of Specific Purified TCR Effect on the Immunoregulatory Potential of TGF-beta
Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-b) is a mediator released by nearly all cell types. It has suppression activity on the immune system, but exactly how this effect is carried out is not clear. Previous experiments showed that IgG interacts with or carriers active TGF-b, that could suppresses cytotoxic T-cell responses to an immunogenic tumor in mice. Since T cell receptor (TCR) has structura...
متن کاملEstablishment of Proliferative Tetraploid Cells from Normal Human Fibroblasts
The chromosomal instability of polyploid cells, which leads to the formation of aneuploid cells, is causally related to carcinogenesis in human tissues. However, the precise link between the chromosomal instability of polyploid cells and oncogenic transformation of them remains elusive. This is partly because we lack an experimental model in which non-transformed polyploid human cells can propa...
متن کاملMesenchymal Stem Cells Do Not Suppress Lymphoblastic Leukemic Cell Line Proliferation
Background: Several studies have demonstrated the immunosuppresive effects of mes-enchymal stem cells (MSCs) in allogeneic or mitogenic interactions. Cell-cell contact inhibition and secretion of suppressive soluble factors have been suggested in this re-gard. Objective: To investigate if adipose derived MSCs could inhibit Jurkat lym-phoblastic leukemia T cell proliferation during coculture. Me...
متن کاملThe Effects of Dental Pulp Stem Cell Conditioned Media on the Proliferation of Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells
Background: Dental Pulp Stem Cells (DPSCs) are multipotent mesenchymal stem cells. DPSCs can renew themselves and differentiate into various cell types such as adipocytes, osteocytes, neurons, etc. DPSCs possess immunomodulatory properties and can inhibit peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) proliferation. Recent studies showed that conditioned-medium mesenchymal stem cells also had immunos...
