Polyamine starvation causes parallel increase in nuclear and chromosomal aberrations in a polyamine-dependent strain

|April 15, 1983
Abstract:
Deprivation of polyamines and ornithine causes in a polyamine-dependent CHO strain aneuploidy and alterations in nuclear morphology including micronuclei, macronuclei, framented and bulged nuclei. There is also formation of multinucleate cells. The number of micronuclei and certain other nuclear aberrations increase concomitantly with chromosome abberrations.
