Article Synopsis
  • The chromosome-19 miRNA cluster (C19MC) plays a role in how certain viruses affect multinucleated cells in the placenta, but its connection to multinucleation was previously unclear.
  • Researchers found that C19MC is linked to meiosis-related genes and discovered a new process called meiosis-III, where nuclear division and cell division happen together to create multinucleated cells.
  • The study shows that C19MC is crucial for a structure called nucle(ol)ar invasive cytoplasm (NiC) which helps in the division of nuclei and supports the creation of multinucleated cells, providing insights for cancer research, virus interactions, and potential therapies.

: The prognosis of colorectal cancer (CRC) is mainly based on the clinical stage; however, CRC is considered a complex disease due to its molecular heterogeneity. The development of novel biomarkers to improve patients' diagnosis and prognosis remains fundamental. : A cohort of forty-nine CRC patients from the National Cancer Institute of Mexico was included to collect clinical and miRNA expression data.
