    DNA Fingerprinting with the oligonucleotide probe (CAC)5/(GTG)5: somatic stability and germline mutations

    DNA fingerprints were generated from various human somatic tissues and from peripheral blood of 179 children and their 80 parents using (CAC)5/(GTG)5 oligonucleotide probes. Whereas somatic stability of the finge...

    Prematurely condensed human sperm chromosomes after in vitro fertilization (IVF)

    During an in vitro fertilization (IVF) program 122 inseminated eggs showing polar body extrusion, but neither formation of pronuclei nor cell cleavage were analysed cytogenetically. Nine of these eggs showed p...

    Complementation studies between Fanconi's anemia cells with different DNA repair characteristics

    Hybrids were performed between cell lines derived from four patients with Fanconi's anemia in which different biochemical lesions have been postulated. Complementation studies in these hybrids based on the rat...

    Analysis of heterogeneity in Fanconi's anemia patients of different ethnic origin

    Complementation studies based on mitomycin C sensitivity were performed on somatic cell hybrids between cells of a German patient with Fanconi's anemia and a Turkish, Arab, and Black African proband, respectiv...

    Rabl's model of the interphase chromosome arrangement tested in Chinise hamster cells by premature chromosome condensation and laser-UV-microbeam experiments

    In 1885 Carl Rabl published his theory on the internal structure of the interphase nucleus. We have tested two predictions of this theory in fibroblasts grown in vitro from a female Chinese hamster, namely (1)...

    Antagonistic effect of cocultivation on mitomycin C-induced aberration rate in cells of a patient with Fanconi's anemia and in Chinese hamster ovary cells

    The rate of spontaneous chromosomal aberrations in fibroblasts of a patient with Fanconi's anemia was slightly reduced after cocultivation with Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. However, after mitomycin C tre...

    Genetic heterogeneity of Fanconi's anemia demonstrated by somatic cell hybrids

    Cells of patients with Fanconi's anemia (FA) are characterized by their high mitomycin C sensitivity. This specific response was used to study the question of heterogeneity in cell hybrids. After fusion of som...

    Activity of rRNA genes in cells of a patient with Down syndrome mosaic

    Disomic and trisomic cells of a patient with Down syndrome mosaic were used to study the effect of the additional chromosome 21 against an identical genetic background. The frequency of Ag staining and the par...

    Staining of the spindle apparatus in human lymphocyte and fibroblast cultures

    The spindle apparatus of human mitoses can be preferentially stained with Giemsa if the cells are fixed with methanol-acetic acid and treated for about 15 min with 0.1xSSC at 92°C and for 18 h with 2xSSC at 60°C.
