Genetic abnormalities have been associated with 6 to 13% of stillbirths, but the true prevalence may be higher. Unlike karyotype analysis, microarray analysis does not require live cells, and it de ...

Your doctor may suggest that you get a karyotype test, based on the results of a pregnancy screening test. Find out what the test looks for and when it’s done.

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a rare blood cancer that develops in the bone marrow. Karyotyping is a genetic technique doctors use to diagnose CML and choose more effective treatments.

Cytoplasmic NPM is a characteristic feature of a large subgroup of patients with AML who have a normal karyotype, NPM gene mutations, and responsiveness to induction chemotherapy.

The term "karyotype" refers to the chromosomal pattern inside the nucleus of an animal cell (eukaryote), as well as to describes the set of chromosomes in a species or in an individual organism ...

Learn about the formation of YY chromosomes and what kinds of physical characteristics and symptoms are associated with XYY syndrome.

Mechanisms of karyotype evolution Non-allelic homologous recombination at meiosis is the basis by which conserved segments of the genome are separated and fused in different combinations 10, 17, 29.

Evolutionary chromosomal changes may take a million years in nature, but researchers are now reporting a novel technique enabling programmable chromosome fusion that has successfully produced mice ...

Researchers for the first time have successfully fused two chromosomes in mice and shown that the new karyotype can be transmitted to offspring. The researchers used a strategy that involved ...
