Heavy metal salts, the workers from molybdenum, tungsten and cobalt plants to make in contact with, reveal their mutagenic activity. Individual sensitivity to heavy metal salts has been analyzed through the example of molybdenum. Chromosome aberrations and sister chromatid exchanges have been studied for the regularities of their formation in lymphocytes of workers depending on the length of service. Sensitivity of tests of chromosome aberrations and sister chromatid exchanges has been compared to reveal genetic consequences of these types of the effects.

Mature aggressive B-cell lymphomas, such as Burkitt lymphoma (BL) and Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), show variations in microRNA (miRNA) expression. The entity of High-grade B-cell lymphoma with 11q aberration (HGBCL-11q) shares several biological features with both BL and DLBCL but data on its miRNA expression profile are yet scarce. Hence, this study aims to analyze the potential differences in miRNA expression of HGBCL-11q compared to BL and DLBCL.

However, chromosome aberrations are common during early mammalian embryogenesis. Chromosomal abnormalities during the early stages of embryogenesis result in the formation of mosaic embryos, wherein cells with normal genomes coexist with cells exhibiting abnormal genomes.

Chinese cherry belongs to the family Rosaceae, genus Prunus, and has high nutritional and economic value. 'Duiying' is a Chinese cherry variety local to Beijing, and has better performance than sweet cherry in terms of disease resistance. However, disease resistance resources of 'Duiying' have not been fully exploited partially due to the lack of a high-quality genome.

Nuclear protein transcription factors (TFs) regulate all biological processes in plants and are necessary for gene regulation. The transcription of genes during plant growth and development and their response to environmental cues are regulated by TF binding to specific promoter regions in the genomic DNA. Polyploid plants with several sets of chromosomes frequently display intricate genomic biases concerning TF expression.

BCR::ABL1-like B-lymphoblastic leukaemia (B-ALL) neoplasms lack the BCR::ABL1 translocation but have a gene expression profile like BCR::ABL1 positive B-ALL. This includes alterations in cytokine receptors and signalling genes, such as and Cases with CRLF2 rearrangements account for approximately 50% of cases of Philadelphia-like acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (Ph-like ALL), and the frequency of specific genomic lesions varies with ethnicity such that IGH::CRLF2 translocations are more common in Hispanics and Native Americans.We report two cases of BCR::ABL1-like ALL, with significant eosinophilia.
