Editor—Tetrasomy 21 without mosaicism has previously been described in four liveborn children, two of whom had physical features consistent with Down syndrome. We describe a male infant with partial ...
It has been known for several years that abnormal chromosome numbers lead to protein imbalances in the affected cells. Researchers at RPTU have now investigated the detailed effects of such ...

Hundreds of thousands of chromosome studies are performed each year on peripheral lymphocytes, skin fibroblasts, amniotic fluid cells and chorionic villus tissue, and rates of mosaicism for ...
Mosaic Loss of Y (LOY): A Prevalent Phenomenon Long before the Y chromosome potentially vanishes from the human species, many men are already experiencing its loss within certain cells. Commencing ...
Scientists are expressing concerns about male reproductive health due to the Y chromosome's genetic material loss, potentially disappearing in 11 million years. A study revealed a sharp decline in ...
Researchers mapped Y chromosome loss across thousands of individual cells from human cancers, with disturbing results.
Flip open a high-school biology textbook, and the rule seems tidy: two X chromosomes mean girl, and an X paired with a Y means boy. That much smaller Y chromosome carries the SRY gene, which is the ...
